Yeah just read those on winaero
Which as well as a really good tweaking software
Actually has a very good section for Windows 11 news
And tips and tricks

Not noticed any degradation on my Ryzen Zen 3 so far 11 is running lovely, the fix coming will obviously be even better

One issue i have found is my cpu on idol is higher in temp. Used to be around the 30s doing very little now its 50s. Not quite sure why that is as of now.

My Cinebench R23 score is now 17K, it was 18.3K. The PC does not feel slow and games run fine though.

Windows update today addressing l3 cache and new chipset drivers today addressing preffered core.

Small but noticeable boost in cpu timespy scores with new windows update and chipset drivers installed.

 

[FredFlint]

My Cinebench score went down 50 points after updating chipset and windows.

I’ve installed the update and new chipset drivers. I know many don’t bother with chipset drivers though. Will these eventually be installed automatically by Windows?

Chipsets drivers will not be included in Windows updates.

The the other poster, 50 points is within margin of error.

My Cinebench score is now back at 18.3K, don’t know why it dropped 1.3K but it was at 17K since I first updated to Win 11? Though it might be all the security stuff.

How is a 4 year old chip already obsolete?!

lol, i have it running fine on an old core 2 quad. The workarounds for unsupported CPUs.... work

This is good. Will MS block updates on these workaround installations eventually though?

They might
Though people will likely find new workarounds anyway

MS said they won't but they cant guarantee security updates if they fail to install on unsupported hardware.

If I load a VM and close it down my Cinebench score drops 1.35K, if I reboot its back(sometimes), so think its somthing to do with VM's that is dropping CPU performance, for me anyway.

 

[Shocky-FM]

Not been offered the upgrade yet, but maybe that's a good thing.

My system is ready, apparently. Might stick it on hold for a while. Really don't like what I'm setting in benchmarks, CPU and Gaming.

So Windows with Hyper-V enabled is less performant (not a real word but hey-ho it's a word in tech scenes anyway) than Windows without. There's valid reasons for this so whatever.

With the scheduler fix and latest AMD chipset driver to recognise the "best" cores I'm pretty much back to Windows 10 perf levels.

I say pretty much because I see FPS dips if I leave WSL running (wsl.exe --shutdown).

Just about to install a 5900x from my 3900x and really not keen on updating windows yet.
