News & Reviews:   AMD GPU driver bug

After several users reported online recently about their Ryzen CPUs being mysteriously overclocked without their consent, the culprit has finally been found. Get this, it seems that the problem lies with a bug in AMD’s GPU driver which changed users' CPU settings in BIOS without permission.

Previously, AMD added support for automatic CPU overclocking through one of its GPU drivers last year. This feature was meant to simplify the overclocking experience by adding in a Ryzen Master module into the Radeon Adrenaline GPU drivers.
