From HardwareUnboxed:
"I’ve found what looks to be an issue/bug with Windows 11 with AMD CPUs that might catch reviewers out. If you install W11 with a 5950X for example, and then change to the 5800X or really any other Ryzen CPU, the L3 latency increases..."
"and gaming performance drops quite significantly, sometimes by 20%. I’ve had this issue with a few CPU changes now. I first ran into it with a fresh W11 install on the Ryzen 5 3600, installed the 5950X and gaming performance was well down on where it should be..."
"Basically, it seems like you have to fresh install Windows 11 for every CPU change. I’d like to know if anyone else is seeing this issue or can replicate it. Needless to say it’s making updating our data a nightmare."
