Here's How AMD Zen 6 Could Help Eliminate Gaming Frame Rate Stutters
AMD's next-generation Zen 6 could be stellar for gaming, and not just because of its higher instructions per cycle (IPC), 7GHz clock speed, or masses of added cores. Hydra OC tool creator Yuri Bubliy, better known as 1usmus, has revealed a number of new features that could help prioritize cores and boost individual core performance, reducing frame rate dips and 1% lows in gaming, VideoCardz reports.In modern processors, core frequencies can vary dramatically across power states. In an ideal scenario, the cores being used the most would run at high boost frequencies for maximum performance, while the cores not being used would run closer to base clock.

While that doesn't always happen, Zen 6 is looking to fix it with a number of tweaks.
