    I don't think this quite answers my question.

    If the network is recognised as a public how do i change it to a private network.

    You were suggesting

    • Under Private networking, check mark .Turn on Private networking.

    the network is recognised as Public. What would changing Private network settings do?

    • Click on save changes.

    You can also refer the below chart.

    Change network profile :

    Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Change advanced sharing settings.

    are you suggesting change the public network settings?

    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
