Looks nice mike.

Nice board Mike

Dang, I haven't run those to be able to compare. But I get a big hit in realbench of about 15% (45% in image editing by itself). DX12 games crash. Going to reinstall the nvidia drivers now.
Hopefully it is just telemetry on the performance side, but that seems like a lot.

Well I even uninstalled the Nvidia drivers with DDU and reinstalled and the DX12 games still crash in the Nvidia driver. Vulkan games run fine. The performance in Realbench Image Editing went from 22 to 32 seconds, but the CPU performance was fine. So I think this is graphics related.

Benchmarking scores seem to be taking a deep dive on Win11, at least on my PC

Only 3D on mine but that was in Insider dev too. DirectX 11 seems to take worst hit.
