    Maybe it’s because I use Linux but I can’t relate (anymore). So glad I’ll never have to sit through another forced windows update 😌

    After switching to Linux a month ago, I can finally participate in the circle jerking:

    Forced updates? Haha lol. That’s such a Windows user thing to say.

    I use linux, but can somewhat relate because i have a weird AM5 motherboard that shows 0-4 minutes of “DRAM ERROR” before posting

      I’m pretty sure that’s a bios option. Your ram is retraining for maximum overclock. Turn it off. Live with the 1% slower performance.

        Hate to break it to you, but no. I turned every option regarding cpu or ram overclocking off and it still won’t post stable. Doesn’t matter, i am a cs phd, so i pretty much start the system in the morning and shut it down before i go to bed, this way i just have to start it before getting coffee :)

          Have you tried setting the ram to lower than rated? For example, it could have been sold as 6000 but is only reaching 5600. There might also be a newer bios that fixes the common bug of memory retrain settings not being saved.

    At least now, when you do “update and shut down”, it will first restart to actually completely finish the update and then shut down again.
