You manage 1500 GPU Rigs and you must weekly reboot windows? you are a really bad miner. My windows10 runs faster then linux (ethos), more stable than linux, i need no reboot for over 2 month (no miner restarts or what ever).
Do the right job, then windows works fantastic. i work with windows 1703, 1803, 1809 and alle works perfect. my windows make no updates, you must find the right solution
Windows Hashrate 185mh with 6x RX 570, no hardware errors
Ethos Hashrate 178mh with 6x RX 570, i must clock down the cards. with the same speed as in windows, the miner stops working after several hours.
This is my opinion and my experience, i am not a linux hater, but i can´t read this shit about windows, from people who do not work properly with windows.

I love all you keyboard warriors that talk shit with no practical experience. Im so bad I run one of the largest crypto fams in North America! Good job with your couple rigs running Windows. Im sorry you dont know enough about linux to tweak and configure it for performance, but you really shouldnt claim something is better just because you dont understand how to use the other product.
Show me your Windows miners that can do this:

I also think that there is no better operating system than Linux, but for some reason many people are afraid to switch to it. although I dont see any advantage in favor of windows. Well, except that updating the firmware on a video card is a little more convenient in Windows
The learning curve for linux is extremely steep, and many of the posters on here do not have deep technical knowledge to begin with. I am a sys admin and before mining I had barely dabbled in linux just because it was so time consuming to learn. There is a wealth of information out there, but even something simple as setting a static ip can take over 30 minutes of searching and reading if you have never done it before. The world of mining has brought me from a novice linux user to an intermediate one haha. Windows definitely has to be more convenient when it comes to overlocking and stuff like that.
