Windows already handles driver updates efficiently on most systems. If not, a fast driver installer could help since it’s proven to deliver drivers I can’t usually find. I’m not great at keeping drivers up to date, especially on older hardware where they’re harder to obtain. I tend to be slow on updates unless they notice performance issues. A quick installer takes care of most tasks, while I focus on installing chipset and graphics drivers that really matter for speed.
. Then use the Windows Media Creation tool from Microsoft to burn Windows onto a USB drive and reinstall it. Format the C: drive during installation to erase everything, after which install from scratch.

Some builds using an 8-core setup with the 3090 managed higher scores around 20,000. Could there be other tips to improve this result? It seems the Threadripper is currently limiting performance for that configuration. Here are your results.
