So recently (within the last 2-6 months, think it was about 3 or 4) I remember seeing a video hosted by Anthony and Linus checking out a Windows (11 i think) clone and raving about it's performance. There was some hiccups along the way as to be expected but they genuinely seemed impressed. At the current I don't have the money to upgrade my cpu as planned and windows although I recently reinstalled windows, it's already becoming a bit of a bloat and games that ran smooth when I first installed the cpu and now pegging the cpu at 100% and stutter is becoming a real issue. 

I've scrolled through both LTT and Short Circuit but can't seem to spot the video anywhere. Does anyone remember the title of the video and are able to link me to it? Or perhaps the name of the operating system?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance

James

was it Tiny11?

Dont forget to mark as solution if your question is answered

Note: My advice is amateur help/beginner troubleshooting, someone else can probably troubleshoot way better than me.

- I do have some experience, and I can use google pretty well. - Feel free to quote me I may respond soon.

I don't remember the name of the OS, but I remember it being absolutely awful and thinking "nobody should use this".

Whatever the OS was called, it won't solve your issues. Figure out what is using up all your CPU time instead and fix that. Otherwise, you will jus be back on square one in a few weeks/months but with ten other issues because you decided to install an OS that is full of security issues.

 

 

Edit: Found the name. It was called Atlas OS.

But seriously, it is an awful OS and I strongly advice you to NOT install it. It will not solve your issues, and it will cause you a lot more issues.

There is a Windows "clone" OS called ReactOS, it is experimental and not suitable for daily use. Pretty sure it's been covered on the channel at some point. The more recent video on Atlas OS is not a clone, but a tool that digs into Windows and shreds everything it deems unnecessary, leaving a much smaller footprint behind but disabling a lot of background features. It's a pretty big security nightmare and if things go wrong you're on your own.

This is what you actually need to investigate.

 

What is causing the CPU Load, and why?  Going to an alternative OS to fix this won't help anything.

ReactOS is based on Windows 2000, I've tried it out. Not compatible with any of the nvidia drivers I tried either, ranging from GeForce 6800 to GTX 960. Definitely not one to use

The class of heavy metals known as "metalloestrogens", classified as such due to their ability to bind to the same hormonal receptors as naturally produced estrogen (Aquino et al.), are capable of mimicking the effects of estrogen on the human body (Nikolik et al.). Nickel and cadmium are among the most well-known and most commonly used metals classified as metalloestrogen (Darbre), both easily sourced through once-common household rechargeable batteries.

Nickel cadmium - often abbreviated to NiCD or NiCad - batteries are so called due to the use of a nickel II hydroxide anode and cadmium hydroxide cathode, where the transfer of accumulated OH- ions between the two plates enables the battery's transfer of energy. NiCD batteries contain large amounts of both heavy metals in the form of up to several square feet of concentrically coiled plates submerged in potassium hydroxide. Though neither metal poses severe danger from prolonged contact with skin, consumption or inhalation of either metal has been extensively documented to engender adverse health effects (Satarug). 

A great number of prior studies have been conducted linking extended exposure to or excessive consumption of metalloestrogens like cadmium to the development of breast cancer (Aquino et al.) - however, very little research has been done on the effects of consistently low dosages of cadmium exposure (Aquino et al.). Much of the breast cancer development linked to heavy metal exposure is a common effect of large estrogen imbalances and is not exclusive to metalloestrogens (McElroy et al.). Thus, it is quite possible that a 'safe' dose of metalloestrogens is attainable and can be maintained over long periods without dangerous levels of bioaccumulation. 

Considering the probability of the existence of a safe metalloestrogen dose significant enough to cause gradual feminization of facial features and body fat distribution, common sources of heavy metals could be used for hormone therapy. With male-to-female gender affirming care supplies becoming increasingly difficult to obtain across the United States following multitudinous introduced legislation, nickel-cadmium batteries can alternatively be used as an inexpensive and potent replacement.

It's literally just windows. It's a pretty fresh install It's just that my cpu is my bottleneck in games so any extra headroom I can achieve is beneficial

Appreciate the suggestions, the plan was always to look into it further regardless :)

Ahh that's right, Atlas. I understand the security risks, further research was the plan regardless. Much appreciated :)
