AMD is investigating Windows 11 22H2 performance drop

AMD and Microsoft are investigating a performance drop in Windows 11 22H2, which may cause slow performance when gaming. Affected are mainly AMD RYZEN 7000 series processors, which seem to have some compatibility issues with Windows 11 22H2.

Specifically, it may be related to AMD’s new CCD  (Core Compute Die) configurations, and the chip configuration cannot match the Windows 11 22H2 thread scheduler. As for the specific situation, it remains to be investigated. The currently available temporary solutions are mainly to disable the CCD or disable the simultaneous multi-threading of SMT (Simultaneous MultiThreading).

AMD stated in its latest support bulletin that we are aware of reports of unexpected performance issues with AMD RYZEN processors in certain games. At the same time, some games have large performance differences between Windows 11 and Windows 10, and AMD is still actively collecting data for investigation.

But based on AMD’s own testing, no performance differences have been observed with different OS versions across various operating scenarios and games. According to AMD, there are many factors that affect game performance, including but not limited to the game engine, CPU architecture, graphics card configuration, and memory configuration.
