AMD to Release New Windows 11 24H2 Performance Patch for Ryzen 9000 Series
TapTechNews August 22nd news, AMD yesterday released a community blog post, stating that it is brewing a new Windows 11 24H2 performance patch to further improve the performance of the Ryzen 9000 series processors.
After AMD launched the Ryzen 9000 series desktop processors based on Zen5, the official claimed that the Instructions Per Clock (IPC) increased by 16% in each clock cycle.
The tech media NeoWin reported that most independent third-party tech media believe that compared to the Ryzen 7000 series processors based on Zen4, the performance improvement of the Ryzen 9000 series processors is not large enough and not worth upgrading.
AMD also said in the official press release: AMD Zen5 processors provide leading performance in content creation, productivity and artificial intelligence applications, but the community has higher expectations for the gaming performance of the Ryzen 9000 series processors.
AMD said that compared to the Ryzen 7000 series processors, the Ryzen 9000 series processors have improved the performance by about 10% in productivity and creative work loads, about 25% in artificial intelligence work loads, and 5-8% in gaming.
AMD said that the Windows 11 24H2 update cannot correctly utilize the broader branch prediction function of the Zen5 architecture in the current state (without an administrator account), and a new performance patch will be released soon to further enhance the performance of the Ryzen 9000 series processors.
TapTechNews note: Branch Prediction is a means used by modern processors to improve the CPU execution speed, which predicts the branch process of the program and then reads and decodes the instructions of one of the branches in advance to reduce the waiting time for the decoder.
