Ryzen on Windows 7

does this fix the windows scheduler bug?

That's down to Microsoft to resolve.

Ryzen worked on Windows 7 from day 1. The only thing missing was USB drivers, so you couldn't install Windows from a thumb drive, you had to load it from optical media, but USB drivers installed normally after that.
TheStilt on Anandtech forums did a bunch of testing under Windows 7. Literally everything works fine.

That fix has to come from Microsoft, its not on AMD's end. The load balancing peculiarity is either nonexistent or significantly lessened under Windows 7. It appears to be specific to Windows 10.
It was already addressed in the Linux Kernel even.

I thought the Overclocking Suite for Ryzen was only supported in Win10?
Or is that now functional under Win7 too?

The software overclocking apparently uses some software feature specific to Windows 10, but you can still overclock through BIOS just the same.

Do it in UEFI.

I've no intention of Overclocking should I get a Ryzen, but that tool is a neat little thing. Per core OC, Voltage control, and even disabling cores? That shit is cash niggas

Does this mean Ryzen will also work in Win8/8.1?

Of course.

>>59314701
The problem only exists on W10 in the first place.

No one said it wouldn't work on w7, AMD just said they wouldn't be actively supporting it.
Spergs just assumed it flat out wouldn't work.

This.
I don't know why almost everyone thinks not supported is the same as won't work at all.
