    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Well that's why I asked. Mine is on SSD and takes 11 seconds. Your list of games will not appear if it has not checkd for updated suggested settings for awhile until it checks.

    When it says it is refreshing the game list, it is checking, because NVIDIA periodically updates suggested settings. Plus it will look for those for new games you have installed.

    So, the less it is run, the slower it will be.

    Windows 10 update taking long (SEP/2016)

    Hi!

    I want more info on the screen than just a spinning wheel about the progress of the installation. Auch as "Installation step 1 of 3..."

    And how many % of the installation files been processed or a progress bar.

    And you (microsoft) can easily add a timer to see if the update have been taking unreasonable long time and also a notification about "please unplug any usb devices such as usbdisk etc during the update"
