The upcoming ACPI support could allow OS like Windows and Linux read CPU frequencies directly without having to estimate them for optimal performance. AMD’s New CPPC HighestFreq Could Improve CPU Scheduling on Future Ryzen Chips, Resulting in Better Responsiveness Traditionally, OS like Windows and Linux do not have the capability to read the CPU boost frequencies directly from the firmware, but the AMD CPPC HighestFreq could change this forever. The new feature reportedly would allow CPUs to directly report their real maximum boost frequencies to the operating systems through the firmware, which eliminates the need for frequency calculations by the […]
