AMD has fixed a problem with the firmware behind its Ryzen 5 7600X.

The AGESA ComboAM5PI 1.0.0.4 firmware with SMU 84.79.204 unintentionally disabled cores on Ryzen 5 7600X chips with dual-CCD designs.

This caused performance degradation on dual-CCD Ryzen 5 7600X samples because it deactivated Core0. Sometimes the system outright didn't post because the firmware tried to boot off a single CCD.

Other Ryzen 7000 chips were probably affected, and ASRock, Asus and Gigabyte, removed the firmware from their respective motherboard support pages.
