Although installing previews of cumulative updates usually is not the best idea, some users might want to get today's release, considering how many changes and fixes it brings. We also recommend installing 22000.282 if you have an AMD-based PC with Windows 11. The update contains a fix for increased L3 cache delays that cripple performance for many users. Also, AMD today released a new chipset driver with patches for the CPPC issue, so be sure to download that as well.
