One of the problems can cause Windows 11 performance to fall by as much as 15% in certain PC games, according to AMD, but a fix is coming.
If you’re running Windows 11 on an AMD Ryzen chip, brace yourself for slight performance dips. AMD says it’s uncovered a mysterious issue in its processors that can trigger “reduced performance in certain applications” on Windows 11, which launched on Tuesday. The chip maker’s support document indicates that all AMD processors officially compatible with Windows 11 are affected. For consumers, these chips go back to 2018’s Ryzen 2000 series.
