Ryzen 7000 and 9000 see massive gains from Windows 11 24H2. Mostly.

Very strange set of results. I haven’t seen Windows making this much of a difference before.

Also odd that Zen 4 is still faster in some games.

Edit - Steve is really not happy with AMD. :D

Wonder if it is doing similar to Intel Application Optimization (the titles which see the biggest gains are similar between them) - if so looks like Intel will need to pull their finger out and actually update that with more titles but probably won't happen :s

All those gains are nice, but WTF at that Gears 5 boost.
saw a plausible theory in comments that Gears was limited to whatever DirectX version was shipped with Windows, whereas other games pulled updated version
so this game was hobbled by unoptimised DirectX in addition to whatever Zen bug, and thats why Intel also gets a speed up
 
This was a big framerate increase from a fix to Windows, almost a generational upgrade in CPU gaming performance. What have Microsoft and AMD been playing at for all this time to let this sort of performance bug slip through the net?

1 of the big problems at Microsoft is their QA department was massively cut down, It's now maybe at best 1/10th the size so any potential bugs or performance hindering bugs get looked over until there's a big enough backlash.
 

Bjeebus.... :eek:

Will I see any gains going from Win 10 to the latest Win 11 now or should I wait for this wonder update to Win 11 and then switch
