Run some benchmark before and after the update.
Let's see how bad it is.
 
So this lowers the turbo clock of 13/14th gen CPUs or what? :confused:

It's supposed to fix a problem with the power management that has been causing issues for a few people.
There has been some speculation that it will impact performance.

I ran a couple things I saw no real change on my 13600@5.4.
I wonder if it affects performance on the i9's...

microcode: 0x125 0x128
CPUZ 876.7 871.2
CPUZ multi 10629 10520
