@Brian, just wanted to come back and report on this issue. I decided to install Win 10 Home and my goodness... what a difference! Now I feel good about the money I spent on that machine. Everything runs great and fast! Who would have thought Win 11 would suck that much (at least for me). Thanks for your support on this matter.

Hey @Brian, there is no way to buy a legit key for Windows 10 anymore, is there?

FML... *sigh* Thanks again, Brian.

Dude... I'm on an R6 LOL... I did get the specific drivers from Nvidia... Would Windows 11 be the problem too? It is also certainly not acting the same as 10. There are some weird things happening. Can I downgrade without loosing data? Do I need to purchase 10 separately? I stupidly went straight for 11...

@Brian would there be a particular reason why disabling the GPU in the performance tab made increased performance a little bit? I feel my rig is pretty damn slow considering what I have. Sometimes it cant take up to 10 seconds to just open the masks section. Am I hallucinating? Also, would adding more RAM help? And yes, GPU drivers are up to date.

So... I updated these drivers yesterday and noticed now that my keyboard and mouse take some time (about 30-45sec) to "start working" on my log in screen. Is that supposed to mean anything? LOL

There was something with the chipset drivers with the latest date of Oct. 2022. I downloaded it and installed anyway. We'll see what it does.

Just to confirm... I did notice an improvement after updating the drivers using Nvidia's. I don't know if it made a difference, but I also updated the mobo's bios also. Everything seems to be going well for now.

What in the actual fck? LoL The things you learn asking on internet forums...

Figured... so I skiped it. Side note... would you please allow me to buy you some tacos? I've played with this thing for a few minutes and so far I can tell a difference. One would expect Nvidia to install those drivers on its own... why wouldn't they!?!?! Thanks again, Brian!

Thank you very much! Should I care to install the GeForce Experience thingy?

Man! I don't know what the heck I'm thinking... I do indeed have the 3070. Where do I exactly get or choose from those drivers? I thought that stuff was standard...

I just build a system in hopes I'd get zero lag whatsoever with Lightroom, but for some reason every now and then still happens to lag a bit with simple tasks. I'm sure the program itself is not perfect, but with the set up I got, I was hopping to run as smooth as butter. i7 13700K RTX 3060 32 GB DDR5-5600 CL36 RAM Samsung 2T 980 Pro Where did I mess up?

I guess I'll take it as it is problematic LOL.

I... did not know that. Thanks though.

What about color? Does it look accurate to you?

Hey Damien, Just stopping by to show you how I edited a photo for you to check on color and brightness after I just calibrated my monitor. You helped me on this on FB. I know this photo may not be edited up to your strict standards, but feedback on the color and brightness is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I am ready to upgrade my monitor (plus didn't notice it is not mountable 😒), and I went to Damien's guide. It was updated back in March and I was wondering if there has been anything worth mentioning that is out now (besides de fact that half of the monitors in the list are not available anymore). I'm looking at this Acer monitor. Would it be suficient? Thank you!

I actually found the problem (oversaw something dumb). I had set my compression set to ZIP in the external editor settings. After changing it to 'none' again were good to go. Thanks!

I did think about posting there first. Thanks!

Hello, I recently got a new rig and I noticed some things that I am not entirely pleased with in Ps (questions will come soon). The most notable one here is that when saving a doc, it takes 4-5 times as long as it did before. What did I mess up?

Alright... I'll fix it later and reupload.

The one in shadow?

Yay? So, it is over exposed, isn't it?

X1 Rite Pro. Being partially color blind doesn't help either...
