    Hi all. Long time no talk. I just got my new Win10 Spring update, which is the one that took out the CPU caching process in the Intel CPUs, and was wondering if you have seen any of the predictive slowdowns as a result of it?
    I have noticed a lower FPS rates in my games.

    Anyone else have the same results from the Win10 April Update?

    I had a strange performance drop. Reinstalled fresh and it went away. That's literally the first time in history I've had that fix something in Windows. Shrug.

    I have had now 5 BSODs in the last month, which is before and after the Spring 2018 update,
    So far, none of it's been due to Nvidia updates that I can tell.
    Thank you Microshaft....
