I tell you what, AMD and Windows 11 are doing more to push me towards an Intel CPU that Intel are doing to attract me!
I have 3 pc's all brand new components all working 100% solid on Windows 10, no issues at all.
I put Windows 11 on them and I get a 2 to 3 second freeze on initial load in to Windows, games randomly freeze, software and games just randomly close, the pc's run slower and finally when I copy a file from any of the pc's to my server, it locks the machines up so I cannot do anything else on them until the transfer has finished.
I do the same on my Intel Windows 11 based Laptop and runs fine, no freezing, runs faster in general usage, no slow down when copying files etc.
I took the NVME Drive out of the machines, put them in to the laptop and booted them, all of them booted and ran without issue.
Frankly there are 2 reasons I am not swapping out to Intel at the moment, 1 is that they are having issues which are currently worse than my AMD issues and secondly I don't have the money for 2x 14900K & 1x 14700k based systems.
Just want to add this happens on my 3950x, 5950x, 5700x and 7900x3d all of them freeze on initial boot in to windows and will randomly lock up when transferring files from any of them to my server or another one of the pc's.
It only does it on Windows 11, doesn't do it on Windows 10 or Ubuntu.
I have a week off work from 3pm today, so will do some testing, but I am really sick and tired of it and as I say it's pushing me away from AMD!
It's not happening with myself and a few others who are on Windows 11 with Ryzen CPU's so it has to be another common denominator.
