LOL, yeah, Linux is the últimate methode.
But sadly, for several reasons Windows is still needed, because of the lack of some professional and official apps for Linux, also respect of games (although currently this is changing).
To tame Windows to my like I used the own Windows tool GodMode, which give access to all setttings of Windows, even the hidden ones, and a FOSS tool called Window Optimizer (better to use a tool for some settings, because registry settings by hand is pretty dangerous and easy to convert your PC in a paperwight)
