The newest thread on windows that jeremy did recently should be pretty mature. I tried to help a bit with it.
Keep in mind that there are some CPU with integrated graphics. You could always use the integrated graphics for display. My setup does not have integrated graphics.
I think NVME helps alot. I created this thread in the hope people would add to it with their setups. While not apples to apples, the ubuntu (on NVME) setup performed much faster than windows(SSD nand?) with all other hardware being equal. It also shows what a 1060 can do with 16GB of system RAM. Quite a bit slower…
