That only applies to mobo/cpu changes

Nono, the game does not startup on any rig once the DRM is triggered. I am completely locked out (still).

And 1060 3GB is nowhere to be found, but for that we have other site reviews, right? (at least there is mention at end of article that any card even with lower VRAM will work).

I do not have a 3GB model in-house, Nvidia never supplied the ref sample, AIBs did. Neither do I want to recommend my reader-base to get one over the 6GB version.

Small note, CPU scaling perf results with Threadripper 1950X are fine so the Ryzen 7 1800X low FPS issue really seems OS or game related. Currently I am trying to upgrade Windows to the fall build and will report back. But the fact that TR 1950X (basically dual 1800X) works fine means this is an isolated issue somehow to some users.

I added Threadripper into the bar chart.

You can fix the 40 fps AMD issue by installing the 16299.15 windows fall creator's update build. I did it myself and so did a few others and this fixed the issue for all of us. It's a Microsoft issue.

Thanks for the tip. I just installed that build, ran the benchmark...BAM!
