Windows 10 November Update - RAM Problems?

[J.P.R.]

Heyho all People here,

 

I am totally new to the LTT-forum. I've built a new Ryzen computer in summer and it has been going great:
-R7 1700 (Oc'ed to 3.8Ghz)
-GTX 1060 (2101Mhz/4860Mhz)

-Samsung 960 Evo 256GB SSD

-16GB Corsaire Vengeance 3200 (showing 1467Mhz in Ryzen Master)
- Asrock AB350 Fatality Mini-ITX board

Like I said everything was working well, I managed to do the P-State overclock to squeze some more performance out of the hardware. However I used to have my RAM on a higher clockspeed until the Windows 10 Novembe update took place. After the computer restarted to complete the updates, the computer wouldn't post anymore and just shuts down several times until it resets to stock settings and posts/boots up. Now I "only" have to boot with 1467Mhz. It used to be higher, what step exactly I can't tell, because strangely enough the XMP-profile settings in my asrock mainboard bios and in the AMD ryzen master  (which I always used to confirm that the bios-settings succeded) were shown differently. Ryzen master showed 1600Mhz, which would be the fastest that the RAM would go anyways? In the bios I had to set one step underneath (was it 1567Mhz?), cause otherwise it wouldn't post...

I wouldn't care so much about this, if it werent for game-stuttering. The only hardware-intensive game I am playing is Battlefield 1, which used to be quite stable 60fps (with very rare fps-drops/microstuttering). Now I can experience quite a lot of stuttering. Happens mostly (but not only) at the beginning of matches or while zooming in/out of the map when you died... I can still play the game but its at a rate, on that I am wondering why this happens so often on this up-to-date hardware, and it is unpleasent.
Additionally I can't seem to connect to my second screen anymore, which happend sometimes before the update, but now its constantly...!?!

Maybe some of you know how to handle these situations?

Thanks and let me know if you need any more infos.

regarding the RAM, these things are weird, but it seems you have it running at very close to 3200Mhz, so no real worries there.

the FPS drops are weird. disable windows game mode, but it might've been a bad update? IDK about that one.

Hmm... you might have been on to it.
I was looking for the switch to explicitly deactivate game mode and couldn't find it. So I googled and found out that it has been removed and in order to turn game mode off I needed to register a key in the registry... strange...
However I also deactivated some recording of sound/video whatever stuff microsoft has put somewhere in those settings-menu, where once the game-mode was.

After a fresh bootup, smooth 60/59 fps in bf1. But I'm gonna keep an eye on it.

Thanks man
