Microsoft finally fixes Windows 11 performance bugs on AMD processors

If you have a Windows 11 PC with an AMD Ryzen processor, you should update it right away.
Windows 11 users with an AMD CPU need to take a sigh of relief. Microsoft has finally rolled out an update that fixes the performance issues Windows 11 was causing on several AMD Ryzen processors. The issues came to the knowledge of both Microsoft and AMD shortly after Windows 11 began rolling out, with as many as two major issues impacting users. Both companies had said a fix would arrive soon.
The Windows 11 Build 22000.282 update patches the two issues that AMD Ryzen processors were saddled with right from the beginning. The first one caused the L3 cache latency to triple, thereby causing performance dips of up to 15 per cent in games that utilise heavy resources. The second issue was with the shifting of threads over to the fastest core using AMD’s preferred core technology, and Microsoft has fixed this one, as well, for good. Because of this issue, games that needed the CPU’s maximum power to run could not do so. In fact, AMD has separately released a new chipset driver to fix this problem.
