Problems with AMD Processor in Windows 11, This is Microsoft's Action

admin October 24, 2021 0

 After previously having problems with Windows 11, Microsoft has finally fixed the problems that occurred in its new OS with AMD processors.

This problem causes Windows 11 users who use AMD Ryzen processors to experience decreased performance. This decrease varies, up to 15% in some esports games.

While in certain applications the decrease is only 3-5%. The decline was more severe after Microsoft released its first Patch Tuesday, which only fixed a few other issues that existed after Windows 11 was released in full.

Now they have finally fixed this issue via patch KB 5006476, which previously caused increased latency in the Ryzen processor's L3 cache and caused a performance drop.

In addition, through this patch, Microsoft also fixes problems with Bluetooth connection, application opening time, Windows Search, and more

The second issue that arose from a flaw in the UEFI Collaborative Power and Performance Control 2 (CPPC) driver, which is responsible for managing the thread usage schedule of the fastest cores in the processor, has also been fixed.

This UEFI CPPC feature previously did not work properly on processors that had eight or more cores and had a TDP above 65W, aka almost all AMD's high-end processors.

There is no further information about the problem that makes Windows 11 reportedly greedy for RAM. Previously a Reddit user by the name of gyrohan269 discovered a Windows 11 bug that caused the Explorer application to not be able to free up RAM even though the user had completely shut down the application.

Even Explorer keeps consuming RAM when he restarts the app and every time he opens a new folder, the app will eat up even more RAM.

"Every time you open or close Windows Explorer, the amount of RAM used increases by several MB without decreasing when you close it. For example: When I turn on my PC Windows Explorer uses 60MB, then when I open the folder it goes up to 80MB and when I close Windows Explorer only drops to 70MB instead of 60MB Even when I open the folder many times it eats up to 1GB of RAM
