FML on this one. Nothing online about it either. Going to cut my losses and just do a quick clean install and say FU to Windows updates altogether.

I've done all that except updating the bios. I just got everything a few weeks ago and thought I kept it up to date but never know.
Thanks. I hope it works

Still idling around 30% CPU usage because of these fucking MSI programs. I can't figure out what the fuck requires so much.
Find alternatives?
Bios Flash was a no go. Moved it to a new system and it worked fine. Gonna fresh install windows.
I can give those programs a try Zet since we have pretty similar builds

Yeah. I should have tried it lol. New install is up and thanks to having at least games on a different SSD, installing those was quick and painless.
I'll keep it in mind but sincerely hope that there is no next time.

The only MSI program I run is Afterburner, and it sits at 0.4% CPU util. Motherboard vendors are notorious for piss-poor fucking programs and I never install anything I don't have to. I wouldn't even keep Afterburner, but I really need it for the custom fan profiles and light OC'ing I'm doing.

If you don't use Rivatuner you shouldn't have a lick of idle usage from Afterburner.
Unless 100% necessary I never use any active process from any manufacturer/vendor. My only startup programs are Afterburner, Playclaw, Steam, and Borderless Gaming.
Good call, I uninstalled RivaTuner and CPU util. is now 0.0%.
Benchmarks for the 1060 coming out, and at least at Founders Edition pricing it's not a good deal, coming relatively even (DX11) or flat out losing (DX12/Vulkan) to the RX 480, which is quite a bit cheaper.
It'll even out a little as 1060's @ $249 become more available, but yeah, generally the 480 wins in this budget category.
That's assuming vendors can/want to meet that msrp.

There's a couple 1060's on Newegg for $249. Of course, they go in and out of stock rapidly, just like the 1070 and 1080.
Titan X [Pascal] video. $1,200. 12GB of GDDR5X memory, 1.53 GHz clock and some other huge numbers.
$1,200?
Goddamn.
Why the fuck would they give it the same exact name as a previous model? That's just gonna be confusing for consumers.
