This claim is entirely incorrect and applies only to Intel. It remains valid only when you surpass their specifications.
Launch Task Manager, search for drivers and remove the outdated ones, then attempt to download them manually rather than using the faulty windows.
You should identify the specific issues or hardware you're using, then search for compatible Intel drivers. For AMD, manually download the latest drivers from the official AMD website based on your processor model.
You're unsure about using the task manager for drivers... Perhaps you meant the device manager? @Virtualnate If you reinstalled Windows, previous drivers might be missing. It usually retains personal files like documents, but not system components. DDU helps completely remove graphics card drivers because sometimes leftover files remain. But since you didn't replace your graphics card, it probably won't assist. Still, check GPU usage and clock speeds while gaming. Use the same software that tracks FPS—if it only shows FPS, try MSI Afterburner. It lets you enable on-screen stats like GPU and CPU performance, including FPS.
