Published by

AMD has released the Ryzen Chipset Driver version 8.01.20.513, a non-security update aimed at addressing issues related to the L3 cache on AMD Ryzen processors running Windows 10 and 11. This update includes important bug fixes and features an updated Install Shield software version. However, it's worth noting that this package does not come with support for the AMS Mailbox driver or the S0i3 filter driver.

Release Highlights:
- Bug fixes implemented.
- Updated Install Shield software.
- Exclusion of AMS Mailbox driver and S0i3 filter driver support.

Known Issues:
- Users who have installed the AMD Chipset Installer version “7.xx.xx.xx” will be unable to revert to version “6.xx.xx.xx” or any earlier versions. To work around this, users should:
1. Uninstall the most recent version (7.xx.xx.xx or later).
2. Remove the “Qt_Dependencies” folder found in "C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD\Chipset_Software\".
3. Proceed to install an older version (6.xx.xx.xx or earlier).
- On non-English operating systems, some driver names may display in English.
- Instances may occur where Ryzen PPKG fails to install or upgrade.
- Issues have been reported regarding AMS and S0i3 filter drivers on non-English OS setups.

Additionally, users seeking assistance with driver management can refer to guides on downloading the latest drivers, managing driver-related issues through the Device Manager, backing up and restoring drivers, and preventing Windows Updates from automatically downloading drivers on Windows 10 and 11.

Extension:
As AMD continues to enhance the performance and reliability of its Ryzen processors, this update reflects the company's commitment to addressing user-reported issues promptly. Users are encouraged to regularly check for updates to ensure their systems run smoothly. Future updates may include additional support and enhancements, particularly for the AMS Mailbox and S0i3 filter drivers, which are critical for optimizing power management and system performance on mobile devices. Keeping informed about driver updates and known issues can significantly improve user experience and system stability
