Windows 10: did windows 10 build 1909 truly ruin gaming?

my laptop is an alienware r5 i9 and it has nvidia gtx 1080 graphics card. i am currently on windows 10 build 1809. all my games are working fine and i am not getting any fps drops in any games. i am thinking about formatting my hard disk and installing windows 10 build 1909

i did some research. i found that there are issues if you want to play games on 1909. these are posts which complain about games crashing on 1909:-
1) https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...3-59eb97c80325
2) Game crashed - FATAL ERROR (Windows November 1909 Update) - Solved Topics - TruckersMP Forum
3) Just a moment...

these are posts about fps drops:-
1) FPS drops on games after windows 1909 update : Windows10
2) Lower FPS performance with Windows 10 1909? : Windows10

i think those issues happened when 1909 was just released. is the 1909 iso which is available now different from the 1909 iso which was available when 1909 was first released and it has been patched and the bugs have been resolved?

also if i install 1909 and i dont do any windows updates then will i have the above issues?

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
