I woke up this morning to this delightful Bulldozer news.To be honest, I didn’t even think this elusive update even existed or would actually see the light of day. But now that its here, it has me interested. If anyone has a bulldozer CPU, please test this and post any results in the comments! I would love to see a before and after comparison running at the same clocks!

So far there are some users over @ OCN testing the patch:

Update: It appears Microsoft has removed the patch, as it was incomplete…..according to AMD
“there are actually two updates needed for AMD Bulldozer CPU architecture. Microsoft posted just the first patch and we do not believe users would benefit in any way from it. The patch was originally scheduled for the first quarter 2012 and then the users will see tangible performance benefits when using Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 operating systems.”
