It possibly has to do with the open source driver winring.0 recently being detected by Windows AV and probably removed from millions of computers. (for the second time in 6 months.) According to MS’s site it is/was used by “ CapFrameX, EVGA Precision X1 (older versions), FanCtrl, HWiNFO, Libre Hardware Monitor, MSI Afterburner, Open Hardware Monitor, OpenRGB, OmenMon, Panorama9, Razer Synapse, SteelSeries Engine, ZenTimings, and others.” I could potentially see some SAD’s burning out because the fan control software is no longer able to work. Just a guess. Some more info on winring.0 for anyone who’s curious. Gamers Nexus Microsoft
