Microsoft's next major Windows 11 update brings significant gaming performance improvements for Ryzen processors. Version 24H2 promises speed improvements for both new and older AMD processor models.
AMD has announced that the upcoming Windows 11 version 24H2 update will significantly improve the performance of the new Zen 5 processors. The recently released Ryzen 9000 series of processors failed to meet performance expectations in most tests. Following rumours that it could be a bug in Windows, AMD has confirmed that the branch prediction code specific to their processors will be optimised in the new version of Windows. The update is expected to be released next month.

Samsung's high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips intended for use in Nvidia's artificial intelligence accelerators have failed tests due to heat and power consumption issues. This has raised doubts about their performance. It is noted that these problems also affect Samsung's HBM3E chips, which were introduced a few months ago.
Samsung, which has received a lot of criticism for its underperforming Exynos chips over the years, seems to be improving its performance. The Exynos 2400 chip is significantly better than previous Exynos chips. Thanks in part to a powerful new GPU created in collaboration with AMD, Samsung was able to achieve this result. However, Samsung may abandon AMD's developments in favour of its own GPU for the Galaxy S26.
