I'm not here to say get windows 11 but I did a fresh install several months ago when I got my 4090 off Facebook marketplace and I haven't had a problem yet. I just use it for gaming and don't really update my Nvidia drivers unless the hivemind says to. Idk that's my experience I guess.

Do they split the staff/site to a linuxcentral? Winecentral?
