    Windows Defender can Significantly Impact Intel CPU Performance, We have the Fix

    Hi, I been testing some more and the Defender mode is always on so far(been 1/2 day) as mentioned it goes on about 3 min in on fresh boot.

    Windows Defender can Significantly Impact Intel CPU Performance, We have the Fix

    Here a 5 run test after fresh reboot. I will try CB2x and see but the MT in CPU-Z you can see 2%. also while the ST not seeing it there I normally never see 800 in ST run and now do even if it ends tiny bit below when finished. Edit here results of CPU-Z, CB20/23. Defender counters on. 0x222...

    Windows Defender can Significantly Impact Intel CPU Performance, We have the Fix

    I have that same error in service name and never ran any scripts, Defender running normal. Little update, I honestly forgot about this thread as I posted when I first tried it on my 12600k in Win10. It seems it was not an issue but now I couldn't find why new install of Win11 CPU-Z was slower...

    Microsoft Sets 16 GB RAM as Minimum-Requirement for Copilot and Windows AI Features

    GPE can disable Copilot so as long as they don't remove that you just need a Pro+ version or even reg hack can work on lower Win versions. I have it disabled here with no signs of it in the desktop (I don't use Edge so not sure there).

    Cooler Master V8 3DVC CPU Cooler with Vapor Chamber Announced

    I don't think this is that big as it uses 120mm fans, so probably smaller than a NH-D15.

    Intel Meteor Lake P-cores Show IPC Regression Over Raptor Lake?

    Since Arrow Lake will be desktop, I don't see how they can release a new DT CPU that is slower than last 13/14th gen CPU. I think its more this is focused on low-wattage and multimedia-type workloads.

    Noctua Introduces NM-M1 Torx based SecuFirm2+ Mounting Kits

    I hate to say this as I am a Noctua user but this sounds like marketing, cause you don't need "torx" headed on a screw that only needs inch pounds of force. Sure its a nice touch but not mandatory here. Also to read between the lines I also fell D16 might be delayed even more, why launch this...

    Yeah, 1.6v is pushing it, Samsung B die can get hot if not cooled. I run Micron E at just under 1.4v for 3867 on 12600k, I am MC limited not memory sticks.

    Canada Computers Listed "Up-to-date" 14th Gen Core Prices

    I think I paid 285 or so for Z690 TUF Plus wifi D4, the only thing I would of like it had was flashback , other than that most of the MB are pretty feature rich. But I agree the higher end MB are getting out of control.
