Amd already has the new bios ready to improve the performance of ryzen
Table of contents:
We already told you that A MD was working on a new AGESA micro-code to improve the performance of its new Ryzen processors. Finally, Sunnyvale's already have a new BIOS ready that includes the aforementioned micro-code and some more improvements for their new processors based on the Zen architecture.
AMD Ryzen begins receiving promised performance improvements
This new BIOS fixes the problem Ryzen processors were having when trying to execute FMA3 instructions, a problem that caused the system to crash and was related to power management. Also fixes a bug that caused processors to display erroneous operating frequency after resuming from S3 state.
The latency of RAM has been reduced by a valuable 6 ns, this was one of the weaknesses of the new processors, so any improvement in this regard should have a significant impact on the final performance of the chip. The big beneficiaries will be applications that are especially sensitive to the latency of RAM.
We are continuing to fix an issue related to AMD Ryzen Master, the High-Precision Event Timer (HPET) will no longer be required so performance gains are expected to be higher by overclocking AMD Ryzen processors.
On the other hand, DOTA 2 joins the Ashes of the Singularity by receiving optimization for the new AMD processors, the improvement is estimated at a 15% higher framerate in a team consisting of an AMD Ryzen 7 1800X together with a GeForce graphics card GTX 1080.
With this it is clear that A MD did not lie when saying that its Ryzen processors have a great margin for improvement, the company is already working at top speed so that users who have trusted their new chips are not disappointed and can enjoy their maximum potential.

New c and c ++ compilers improve ryzen performance
AMD goes a step further with the release of new C and C ++ compilers optimized to get the most out of the new Ryzen processors.
Micron already has its 96-layer nand technology ready, shipments will start shortly
Micron has commented that they are ready to start bulk shipping their 96-layer NAND storage chips in the second half of the year.
Tsmc already has its 5 nm node ready and offers 15% more performance
We have information that TSMC has started risk production for the 5nm and has validated the process design with its OIP partners.
