Marcin Grygiel aka First Ever

IT Architect · Strategic Consultant · The Soloist Who Replaces a Full IT Orchestra

An IT Architect & Engineer who delivers global‑scale solutions alone – because I can. I don’t just advise; I build, fix, and improve whatever is broken or outdated. Whether it’s a legacy system, a missing automation pipeline, or a hardware limitation that others call “impossible” – I step in and do the work that usually requires a whole cross‑functional team.

“One person, team‑level results.”

⚠️ The stats graph was introduced mid-project — a full month of data is needed for accurate averages.

Based at FirstEver Technology, I help small and medium businesses as well as individual clients with:

  • IT Strategy & Business Alignment – bridging the gap between technical possibilities and real business goals.
  • Process Automation – turning manual, repetitive tasks into reliable, self‑running workflows.
  • Infrastructure Optimization – cloud migrations (Azure AD, M365), on‑prem improvements, and security hardening.
  • Legacy System Rescue – reviving unsupported software or hardware that everyone else has given up on.
  • Full‑Cycle Tool Development – from an idea to a deployed, documented, and maintained solution (scripts, desktop tools, or even custom firmware).

📰 Latest News

Short updates from the workshop — newest first.

🆕 12/11/2026 - New 4K wallpapers in Universal Windows Wallpaper Changer

In addition to free wallpapers selected with a filter from various online services, my tool now also includes my own wallpapers. I’m pleased to announce the first series of 30 photos in 4K quality and PNG format, taken on the island of Santorini. You can also use the filter to search for photos by phrase (1-3 words), e.g. Sunset, Architecture, Ship. I will add more photos from other locations in the future. 👉 Link

Santorini - new 4K wallpapers

🆕 11/11/2026 — Adobe AVX2 Patch v1.0.1 works with Adobe Photoshop 2027 (v28.0)

Good news for users of Adobe AVX2 Patch v1.0.1 — the existing release, originally built for patching the 2026 version of Adobe Photoshop, turns out to work with the new Adobe Photoshop 2027 (v28.0) as well, without any changes needed. The tool modifies Adobe's standalone installer file (Application.json) so the product can be installed on computers whose processors support AVX but not AVX2 — and this now includes the latest Photoshop release. As before, the patch unlocks the installer only and does not modify any installed program files. 👉 Link

🆕 07/11/2026 — New repository coming: Universal Windows Wallpaper Changer

I'm finishing work on a brand-new repository for the Universal Windows Wallpaper Changer project — github.com/FirstEverTech/Universal-Windows-Wallpaper-Changer. The repo is almost ready and I'll be making the new tool publicly available very soon. Stay tuned!

💎 Selected Projects (chronologically)

Every project below shows a different face of my "orchestra" ability. Click the image to see the full story.

Universal Windows Wallpaper Changer Universal Windows Wallpaper Changer (2026)
Built a lightweight PowerShell tool that sets a fresh, free high-resolution wallpaper on Windows once or on a schedule, with a tray icon and no administrator rights. Windows has no built-in way to rotate wallpapers from multiple free sources without third-party bloatware. My tool picks random images from sources that need no API key, including my own photo collection, or from your own folders, and verifies its own integrity with SHA-256.
Universal Windows Updater Universal Windows Updater (2026)
Developed the first open-source solution capable of upgrading every Windows release from XP through Windows 10 directly to the latest Windows 11 build in a single in-place upgrade. Eliminating years of sequential OS migrations by combining legacy Windows Setup with modern deployment technology through reverse engineering, making it possible to upgrade a 21-year-old Windows XP installation directly to the latest Windows 11.
Intel Chipset Updater Universal Intel Chipset Device Updater (2025)
Built an advanced, security‑focused tool that automatically detects your Intel hardware and installs the latest official chipset INF files with enterprise‑grade safety measures. Intel's official Chipset Device Software has evolved over 25 years into a complex, bloated package. My tool simplifies the process by automatically detecting and installing only the INF files your system actually needs — nothing more, nothing less.
NVIDIA Smooth Motion First Demo NVIDIA Smooth Motion – First YouTube Demonstration (2025)
Created the first public video showing NVIDIA's Smooth Motion technology – days before NVIDIA’s own official presentation. Running on a 12‑year‑old Xeon PC (2013) with an RTX 4070 Ti, the video also showcases my full production skills: script, capture, editing, colour grade, and voiceover in DaVinci Resolve. The final quality matches corporate NVIDIA promos, proving that one person can deliver world‑class tech content.
Adobe AVX2 Patch Demo Adobe AVX2 Patch (2025)
Built a lightweight tool that modifies Adobe standalone installer files, allowing installation of Adobe products (e.g., Photoshop 2026 and 2027) on processors that support AVX but not AVX2. Adobe has restricted its latest products to processors with AVX2 — even though these products do not actually require AVX2 to run. My tool unlocks the installer without modifying any installed program files.
Intel WiFi BT Updater Universal Intel Wi‑Fi & Bluetooth Drivers Updater (2025)
Built a security‑focused tool that automatically detects your Intel wireless hardware and installs the latest official Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth drivers with enterprise‑grade safety measures. Intel distributes Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth drivers as large CAB packages — but your system only needs the version that matches your specific adapter. My tool automatically identifies your hardware and installs the correct driver package from official sources.
RTX4000 Research RTX 4000 DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation Research (2025)
Ongoing research into whether DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation 3x/4x on RTX 4000 series GPUs is truly blocked by hardware or if at least part of the limitation is enforced in software. My working conclusion: forced MFG 3x/4x on the tested RTX 4070 Ti appears to generate and present additional frames at the pipeline level, but output is obscured by a black‑image enforcement path that has not yet been fully neutralized.
CrystalDiskMark World Record CrystalDiskMark World Record (2025)
Achieved the highest documented CrystalDiskMark read speed of 214 GB/s, surpassing previous records. Identified the program's 64‑thread limitation as the primary bottleneck, demonstrating deep expertise in benchmarking and system architecture. Featured as a world‑leading result in global tech communities including Tom's Hardware and TechPowerUp.
USB-C Hub FirstEver 4‑Port USB‑C 10Gbps Gaming Hub (2022)
Released the first product under my brand. It is the smallest (43g / 1.5oz) USB‑C 10Gbps hub on the market and has illuminated USB ports. I oversaw design selection, logistics, documentation, packaging, customs, shipping, and distribution – from factory cooperation to final retail. It is available in the UK from my official online shop and on eBay.
MEGA Light MEGA Light – 400 RGB LEDs (2018)
Built the best backlight system for PC monitors in the world. The device features 400 RGB LEDs and extremely high responsiveness (near‑zero latency). I designed the custom control software and embedded timing optimization. To this day, no better device has emerged, and it remains a reference in the DIY monitor lighting community.
shareVR shareVR – VR on a smartphone (2015)
Created a start‑up called shareVR, software that allows you to use your smartphone as a screen for virtual reality goggles and play PC games. I was the first to play titles such as ARMA 3, Alien Isolation, Crysis 2 and Project CARS in VR. The software used low‑latency streaming and wide game compatibility – all built alone and funded via Kickstarter.
VR Goggles First VR Goggles with Built‑in Cooling (2015)
Designed and built the first VR goggles with a built‑in cooling system comprising two mini fans. This solved the problem of foggy headset lenses, a common issue in early VR headsets. The design included custom airflow channels and a lightweight frame, proving that practical improvements to VR comfort could be achieved without external accessories.
Windows 7 on Android First to Run Windows 7 on an Android Smartphone (2015)
First to run Windows 7 on an Android smartphone thanks to x86 virtualization on an ARM processor. This proof‑of‑concept demonstrated the feasibility of running full desktop operating systems on mobile hardware years before mainstream solutions appeared.
Mining Servers Mining Servers – Ethereum & Scrypt (2013‑2014)
Built the first 8‑GPU mining servers for Scrypt‑based cryptocurrencies based on the most powerful AMD Radeon HD 7990 cards. In the following years, I built many Ethereum mining servers. Many of these servers are still in operation today and continue to make a profit despite increased electricity charges, thanks to custom cooling and power efficiency optimizations.
Windows 3.1 on Nokia Windows 3.1 on Nokia N95 (2009)
First to run a Windows desktop operating system on a smartphone. You may have read about it on technology portals all over the world – "The most awesome – and pointless – hack in smartphone history" (BitTech). In the same year, the FirstEver website was created, the place for my future projects. This hack proved my ability to break constraints and make the “impossible” work, a mindset that still drives every project I touch.
