It’s possible Linux would work better. Granted, based on your hardware, you should be running Windows without issue.

A few weeks later, Microsoft made a statement about it: https://www.pcworld.com/article/2912435/if-windows-defender-flags-winring0-on-your-gaming-pc-pay-attention.html

System76 would need to update how their driver works to remove the obsolete component but there hasn’t been any activity in the driver repository in a few years. As a result, I simply removed Windows. Games work great using the various compatibility layers (in fact, they actually run better) 🙂

I’d still like to get a sound card over here to make it easier to manage sound. The weird remapping the MB uses isn’t supported under Linux so I’m left with a sub-optimal speaker configuration. Just haven’t gotten around to seeing if I can even access a PCI slot on my own without pulling stuff apart 😛
