that sounds about right. the only disadvantage is if you add oddball hardware you need to install the drivers manually. which isnt a big deal on a rig that doesnt see hardware changes for long periods of time.
Thx, totally agree.
One of my rig updated to windows version 2004 and it seems that there is no changes in all my cards and also to mining speed, I have sapphire nitro+ rx 570 8gb and also the radeon software automatically updated to radeon 20.9.2
I see automatic updates as a lottery for a mining rig: everything could work as before, better or worse.
Therefore I prefer to block all automatic updates and manually install / test the version of video drivers I prefer, having the possibility to uninstall the previous drivers with DDU.
I can always revert back the standard configuration to re-enable automatic updates if I need them.
I just hope that guide still works for latest Win 10 releases.
