This is just one part of the fix however.

Earlier this month, it became apparent that there were some issues with AMD Ryzen performance when using Windows 11. In fact, these issues were present since some of the earliest betas for Windows 11 but they largely went ignored until the operating system's first public release. Some testing showed that system performance could decrease by roughly 15% compared to the same hardware running on Windows 10. At the time, AMD and Microsoft said...

Fixes are in the works, but are not out yet.

If you are using an AMD based CPU and you plan on upgrading to Windows 11, you may want to hold off on that for a little while longer. Hell, I still say that you avoid Windows 11 regardless of your CPU for a good year or more if you can help it as it's just not in a good state right now.

But if you're moving forward with Windows 11 despite this warning, you should be aware that you may experience reduced system performance by...

Yeah, it's coming in hot.

Microsoft announced that Windows 11 will be released on October 5. As expected, this new release will be available as a free upgrade for those who are using eligible Windows 10 PCs, or those that purchase new hardware with Windows 11 pre-installed. Though I suppose if you're buying new hardware, that doesn't make the Windows 11 upgrade "free" but I digress.

As with most updates from Microsoft, the free upgrade will be released in phases....

The world of the PCs, which has been living for quite a few years on earnings from its golden age of the past decade, is suffering a notable transformation in a very short period of time. When we talk about PCs, we are now not only talking about desktop computers, when all is said and done. Also included are laptop units, All in One units and desktop or gaming units.

The difference now between PCs and non PCs is the operating system which the unit uses, whether it is Windows,...

It looks like Ryzen (and probably Vega) are making some very impressive waves with developers already. Earlier today, AMD and Bethesda announced a "long-term strategic partnership" between the two companies....

Nvidia had their own (pseudo) announcement today. The company has put up a timer on their GeForce website. The countdown is for roughly six days from now (six days, 3.5 hours from the time of this posting to be exact) and it strongly hints at them finally revealing the GTX 1080Ti.

They also included a small tweet earlier today saying "It's almost time" with a video that again highlights the "Ti" part.
As the countdown takes us to February 28, it migh...

Competition is back!

The higher end Ryzen CPUs from AMD will be released on March 2. The line, called AMD Ryzen 7, will come in three offerings. Now keep in mind that Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 3 CPUs are also coming, but there is no release date confirmed for those just yet.

As mentioned, the high-end Ryzen 7 CPUs will be available in three varieties and price points.

First, AMD announced a special "Capsaicin & Cream" event for February 28. This GDC event will be live-streamed to the world. It is expected that they will at least briefly mention their upcoming Ryzen CPUs (rumored to start going on sale in early March) and their upcoming Vega GPUs (rumored for Spring).
