AMD wants to keep users happy and releases a patch to fix Ryzen issues in Windows 10
If there is something that worries users, especially when it comes to exploiting the possibilities of their machines to the maximum, it is the management of resources and the consumption they makeProcessors, screens, graphics... everything is a very well assembled set that should work optimally.
And this is the theory, since it is not always like that. And that is something that many Ryzen CPU owners have been able to see firsthand. And it is that the range of AMD CPUs has been in the news due to the not very good management that they perform of the resources in computers that work on Windows 10
A problem that occurs when using the High Performance mode on these processors they fail to squeeze all the potential they store to the fullest Some complaints that have come to AMD and that have motivated the company to get down to work and launch a patch aimed at solving these problems."
"A patch that has been released today and that stands out for adding a new plan of operation that seeks to improve the one offered by High mode aforementioned performance. A new mode called AMD Ryzen Balanced and whose objective is to make the CPU unleash its full potential when the system requires it."
This is a bug that only occurs on computers running Windows 10, a bug due to the way the The system manages the cores, since unlike Windows 7, where the physical cores remain active and the logical ones are turned off, in Windows 10 only one of each remains active.
This translates into lower consumption, which is not bad, but also lower performance that comes motivated by the time it takes to activate those coreswhen an application requires it. And that is what AMD tries to avoid with this patch with which it seeks to equate the operation in both versions of Windows.
With this patch AMD makes games improve their performance between 3% and 21% and for it to work we just have to install it moment in which from Windows 10 the name of the default profile will be changed to this AMD Ryzen Balanced."
"By the way with this patch from AMD they also solve the time lag between switching from one mode to another, something that It happens especially when going from Balanced mode to any other of the existing ones such as Low Consumption, High Performance."
"In addition, with the new plan there is a noticeable improvement with Balanced Mode, an improvement that reaches 21.6%, in Crysis 3 or 8.8 % in Battlefield 4. Figures between which the improvements in the rest of the games move."
If you are a Ryzen CPU user you can download the profile from the AMD blog and thus install this patch. Once installed, all you have to do is start using it and check the performance improvements that AMD ensures.
