Win 11 license is tied to your motherboard. Switching anything besides that won't change anything. Did you do a fresh install without Internet when you swapped your mobo? Besides that: you could go with Win 10 (preferably LTSC). Your only other option is to ditch Win for an OS that verifiably respects your privacy.

I upgraded everything except one NVMe.

Also read what I actually wrote. Full offline installs always.

And linux would be an option except Nvidia.

Its not a problem anymore. Nvidia Drivers work fine now.

They don't.

Just went through another round of Proxmox-> NixOS-> EndeavourOS-> Windows11, because of Nvidia.

What problem are you facing with NVIDIA?. Are you using noveau or nvidia properity drivers?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Nvidia open drivers.

Wayland has rendering glitches (most notably with steam) and X11 has constant micro-flickering that kills my eyes.

Yep, open drivers have problems but nvidia proprietary drivers work fine. I use it daily. EDIT: Fixed spelling

Poprietary*

Such a weird word, don't blame you for misspelling it. I just kept reading a different word there.
