I know you're joking, but I'm pretty sure Microsoft skipped 9 when naming the new windows because of an issue like this. Old programs would look for "9" to detect whether or not someone is using an OS older than xp so alot of older programs would instantly think windows 9 was a 95/98 machine.

I see you use AMD as well.

Had the same experience. It ran TERRIBLY at first, nowadays it's a lot better though still choppy compared to other games.

As a laptopfag, I understand.

this can actually happen if the GPU is being drastically bottlnecked.
In Overwatch I had to turn my resolution scaling UP to put more strain on my GPU and smooth out my frame pacing.
