AMD AGESA PI 1.2.0.2 Performance With The Ryzen 9 9950X On Linux


There has been a lot of talk the past few days over the AMD AGESA PI 1.2.0.2 update that has begun rolling out to AMD AM5 motherboards with BIOS updates.

The AGESA 1.2.0.2 is said to improve inter-core latency for Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" processors when cores from different CCDs are cross-communicating. Some -- at least under Windows -- have reported performance improvements and thus several Phoronix readers have requested I run some of my tests with AGESA 1.2.0.2. The ASUS ROG STRIX X670E-E GAMING WIFI motherboard I've been using for my tests rolled out their 2401 BETA BIOS last week that moves to the AMD AGESA PI 1.2.0.2.
