Interestingly, this CPU performs noticeably better under Linux than under Windows 11

Afaik basically all CPUs do. Generally all hardware, if not artificially limited by withholding drivers, will perform better under linux.

Microshit wasting money ruining windows and spending no cash on optimization. Corpo leadership for ya in today's America.

Parasites just looting.

No need to optimize when you can just push people to upgrade their hardware more frequently so you make fat stacks of cash from OEM's.

It's gotten to the point though that it actually works better on older hardware as the system can't actually fully utilise the new hardware because it's not programmed to do that. It's actually such a sad state of affairs. I don't know how the Windows devs can cope anymore. If I worked on that product I would hate my life.
