This is a single core benchmark pretty much - if you want good combat performance you need as strong single core performance as possible. Kazaraz mass comba scenario mimics raids worst case performance by pulling large amount of mobs and letting them cast and attack. Average FPS isn't that bad but 1% and 0.1% low FPS showcase that you can get stutter in those areas when moving around. On top of that Oribos is full of players which further limits the performance.

You can check if it's on in System Information.Įarly versions of Windows 11 had problems with schedulers for Ryzen CPUs which later on was fixed. If enabled it can decrease the performance by a bit. It's a feature present also in Windows 10, but off by default. If you do a clean install the system may have Virtualization-Based Security enabled by default (VBS for short). Microsoft has an app to check for such things and more details on their webpage. Secure Boot can be something you have to enable in the BIOS.

Most if not all recent AMD/Intel platforms have TMP 2.0 on the motherboard. The most problematic can be UEFI, Secure Boot capable and TPM 2. To do so your PC must meet Windows 11 requirements.
