Swear to fucking god the same will happen for GPUs in the next 6-12 months.

EVERYWHERE I looked researching why my RTX 4090 was idling with maxed out mem clock @ 10000MHz not dropping a bit. All the forums, articles and Nvidia themselves gave super standard troubleshooting suggestions before just saying yeah those gpu’s fuckin run spicy.

I underclocked, un-installed, reinstalled, ran it in other PC’s, white washed my drivers, updated bios, flashed bios, pretty sure i biosed my bios, even used recommended windows retarded power throttling setting… fuckin nothing.

Finally during one of my “Fuck Microsoft” tantrums I started belligerently stripping every fucking Windows 11 service, software and apps that would let me. Full on preppared to nuke the whole fuckin PC, not just the OS.

No fucking clue what did it or where it was all I know was it was somewhere in the control panel memory settings/disk optimization-ish/file history/virtual memory area or at least felt like it was from around that before I started aggressively clicking delete one at a time for my entire file history cuz ya know file history has had a bug lasting thru 2 generations of windows now that won’t let you batch delete old files history files. Either way fucker all of a sudden sounded slightly less fans at top seepdy sounding, checked to see if I was loosing it but sure as fuck it really was bringing the gpu back to normal.

Its been humming like a champ ever since. Idles at 5001 runs at 10000 range with curve optimizer. Was able to re-set everything up on a clean install using a local microsoft account, deleted my actual microsoft account, haven’t updated a fucking thing, been running FOLON with 231 enabled mods on 195 plugins. OH and I forgot to mention how noone believ3d me at nvidia that the 4090 when initially bought was running just like this with no issues. Needless to say I’m in stage 2-1/2 of my migration to Linux. Idc if I’m dead wrong about this experience I will never go back to Windows for my erryday desidnated driver or use it more that the 3 pc games I usually play through any year. No internet single player screaming fallacies speech to text into copilot to ruin that cunt fucker and tell people I multi task while gaming.

Once I finally got it installed, Win 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC has been fine. The only real hitch was that I had a terrible time getting the graphics card drivers instsalled; kept getting a BSOD. But everything is running quite nicely.

As soon as I remember to get my other hard drives installed, it will be time to put the Adobe Creative Suite and Corel Painter X on it, and see how happy it is with those.

So, do Linux users not get the extra performance, or did they just not suffer a performance penalty to begin with?

ILikeBoobies ,

Didn’t suffer the penalty to begin with

It was a Windows bug not an AMD problem

I’m currently migrating my gaming system to Linux, it feels so good!

Is this how we download more RAM?

You wouldn’t steal a RAM!

No, this is.

Does anyone know if this was also an issue that was impacting ryzen chips in Windows 10?

Telorand ,

“Users will need to look for KB5041587 under Windows update > Advanced options > Optional updates,” says AMD in a statement to Wccftech.

So, is this an optional update for now, or is this going to be included in some kind of omnibus update?

SpaceNoodle ,

That information is in the first paragraph.

And referenced by the sentence following your quote snippet.

And discussed in the next paragraph.

Telorand ,

I read it. I guess I didn’t understand it.

hasnt_seen_goonies ,

I think it is optional now, and after they observe it’s stability for a while, they will move it into base update, but I’m not sure.

Telorand ,

The article isn’t especially clear. I would guess it’s the way you suggest, but maybe they’re gunshy after the CrowdStrike debacle and want to keep plausible deniability.

zaph ,

It is optional until 24h2 releases at the end of September which it will be packaged with.

Telorand ,

Thanks. From the way I read it, it sounded like it was an optional update that came alongside 24H2.

zaph ,

No worries. The way the info is laid out it’s pretty understandable how you came to that conclusion. I came to the comments to make sure I was understanding it correctly too.

What a time to be alive

Well yeah. Imagine for a 250$ “Operating system” to take weeks until it performs the same as a FOSS OS.

Edit: 259€.

TheDarksteel94 ,

I’m sorry, 250 bucks? Where does it cost that much? 😅

30p87 ,

Windows 11 Pro, doesn’t matter if it’s just the License or with USB, officially costs 259€. Which is ~289 USD.

www.microsoft.com/de-de/d/windows-11-pro/…/000P

And even for the US, it’s 200$.

www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/windows-11-pro/…/000P

This is just the official price. Of course, you’ll almost always get free Win 11 Home with new computers, or a Volume License for 10€ from ebay, or you just don’t activate it. But the official price by M$ is 259€/200$. Which kinda means they think it is worth that much, and it would be justified to charge germans almost 300 USD for “an advertisement delivery platform strapped to a program loader”.

TheDarksteel94 ,

Holy shit, that’s wild lol. I’ve only been thinking about the Home version, which you can get around here for about 140 bucks at most 😅

cough github.com/…/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts cough

30p87 ,

Yep. But the fact M$ believes a few tools that are even far, far inferior to Linux’ tools are worth 60$ is a statement in itself.

wizardbeard ,

Ok, this is the second time I’ve seen this $250 price. Where did you get that from?

Worst I’m seeing is ~$60 for a usb set up to install Pro along with the license, and you can easily get OEM Pro licenses for far far less.

sunzu2 ,

Normies hate grey market because it feels like they are stealing from the rich 🤡

30p87 ,

Normies don’t know what an OS is. I’d say there is not a single person that would actually pay the official price - but it’s nonetheless what M$ is asking for, implicating that’s what they think their Trojan is worth.
