You'll never hear me complaining about free performance, but you might hear me complaining about performance that was left on the table and shimmied in after the fact. This seems to be the case with the latest AMD Ryzen 9000-series chips, which have been underwhelming so far but are now able to gain some free performance from an optional Windows update.
And it's not just Zen 5 chips that are invited to the party—testing has shown that older Ryzen chips look to be getting a tasty performance bonus, too.
