My PC is running quite poorly on bios 3001. The average fps has dropped significantly in of some of games that I regularly play, and the fps can also be quite unstable, compared to what the same games show in the previous bios 2801. I don't really want to rollback again because of the extra microcode patches in 3001. What troubleshooting can I do? It really feels like something in the 3001 bios is bugged, I updated then rolled back about a month or two ago, because I experienced the same issue, this time I thought I would try again with a fresh windows 11 install but there is still a noticeable loss of performance.
