So, do Linux users not get the extra performance, or did they just not suffer a performance penalty to begin with?

ILikeBoobies ,

Didn’t suffer the penalty to begin with

It was a Windows bug not an AMD problem

I’m currently migrating my gaming system to Linux, it feels so good!

Is this how we download more RAM?

You wouldn’t steal a RAM!

Does anyone know if this was also an issue that was impacting ryzen chips in Windows 10?

Telorand ,

“Users will need to look for KB5041587 under Windows update > Advanced options > Optional updates,” says AMD in a statement to Wccftech.

So, is this an optional update for now, or is this going to be included in some kind of omnibus update?

SpaceNoodle ,

That information is in the first paragraph.

And referenced by the sentence following your quote snippet.

And discussed in the next paragraph.

Telorand ,

I read it. I guess I didn’t understand it.

hasnt_seen_goonies ,

I think it is optional now, and after they observe it’s stability for a while, they will move it into base update, but I’m not sure.

Telorand ,

The article isn’t especially clear. I would guess it’s the way you suggest, but maybe they’re gunshy after the CrowdStrike debacle and want to keep plausible deniability.

zaph ,

It is optional until 24h2 releases at the end of September which it will be packaged with.

Well yeah. Imagine for a 250$ “Operating system” to take weeks until it performs the same as a FOSS OS.

Edit: 259€.

TheDarksteel94 ,

I’m sorry, 250 bucks? Where does it cost that much? 😅

30p87 ,

Windows 11 Pro, doesn’t matter if it’s just the License or with USB, officially costs 259€. Which is ~289 USD.

And even for the US, it’s 200$.

www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/windows-11-pro/…/000P

This is just the official price. Of course, you’ll almost always get free Win 11 Home with new computers, or a Volume License for 10€ from ebay, or you just don’t activate it. But the official price by M$ is 259€/200$. Which kinda means they think it is worth that much, and it would be justified to charge germans almost 300 USD for “an advertisement delivery platform strapped to a program loader”.

TheDarksteel94 ,

Holy shit, that’s wild lol. I’ve only been thinking about the Home version, which you can get around here for about 140 bucks at most 😅

Ok, this is the second time I’ve seen this $250 price. Where did you get that from?

Worst I’m seeing is ~$60 for a usb set up to install Pro along with the license, and you can easily get OEM Pro licenses for far far less.

Normies hate grey market because it feels like they are stealing from the rich 🤡

30p87 ,

Normies don’t know what an OS is. I’d say there is not a single person that would actually pay the official price - but it’s nonetheless what M$ is asking for, implicating that’s what they think their Trojan is worth.
