Dawnwalker's PC Launch Gets Quick Workarounds From Rebel Wolves

The Blood of Dawnwalker’s PC launch has its share of hiccups; Rebel Wolves posted workarounds for the four main issues—windowed/borderless stutter (launch in fullscreen), shader compilation crash (update BIOS on Intel CPUs), missing PS5 controller button mapping (work in progress), and sprinting stalling when changing directions on a gamepad (try lowering controller sensitivity to 0.8). Accessibility options are lacking, and the team hopes for a patch improvement, while PC scores on Metacritic/Steam remain solid.

AMD Resolves Ryzen 7000 CPU Burnout Issue with New BIOS and AGESA Release.

AMD has resolved the voltage issues that were causing its new 7000X3D series processors to burn out by distributing a BIOS firmware update to its board partners that places voltage restrictions on the AM5 socket motherboards they ran in. The fix won't prevent users from overclocking memory using EXPO or XMP profiles, nor should it prevent users from using AMD's Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) technology to boost performance. AMD is encouraging all customers affected by the issue to contact its customer support service.

"MSI's BIOS update prevents Ryzen 7000X3D processors from overheating"

Users have reported problems with AMD's Ryzen 7000X3D processors, with some systems failing to boot and one instance of a processor becoming physically deformed. Motherboard maker MSI has released BIOS updates that disallow overvolting features that could give the CPUs more power than they were built to handle, as the damage "may have been caused by abnormal voltage issues." Ryzen 7000X3D processors are set to a lower voltage than regular Ryzen 7000 CPUs by default, but the extra L3 cache can raise temperatures and make the CPU more difficult to cool. Current Ryzen 7000X3D CPU users should install the most recent BIOS update for their motherboards and keep an eye out for new versions that specifically attempt to address this problem.

AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs Burning Out: BIOS Update and Motherboard Fixes Addressed.

Some owners of AMD’s latest 7000X3D series CPUs have reported that their processors have burnt out randomly, leading to damage to both the CPU and the AM5 socket. Reports suggest that abnormal voltage issues may be the cause. MSI has issued new BIOS updates for its AM5 motherboards, which now only support a negative offset for voltage settings to reduce the CPU voltage only. Asus has also restricted CPU voltage options on the latest BIOS revisions. AMD and Asus have not yet commented on the issue. It is recommended that owners of AMD’s latest Ryzen CPUs or AM5 motherboards update their BIOS immediately.

MSI Implements Voltage Restrictions on AM5 Motherboards for AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs

MSI has released a new BIOS for its AM5 motherboards that adds voltage restrictions for the AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs after reports of ASUS motherboards burning up and killing the CPUs due to older BIOS not adding the required voltage restrictions. The latest BIOS only supports negative offset voltage settings on AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs, ensuring that the CPU doesn't get damaged due to overvoltage. MSI has also introduced its Enhanced Mode Boost profile for AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs, which adds more performance while reducing temps and power usage. ASUS has deleted links to all older BIOS releases for its AM5 lineup following the reports of the AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs burning up.
