5.16.7 x86_64 optimized for Zen 2 (some Ryzen CPUs). Fossa

The same as here, compiled in Fossapup64, but with a fresh stable kernel 5.16.7.
This time I will not do .iso. Because I'm lazy, but mostly because no one needs it.

If you use it with the current save folder (or file), then you can go to Menu>>System>>CPU Frequency Scaling Tool and set the desired governor. Personally, for example, I use "conservative". With the old kernel 5.4.53, "ondemand" worked better. At the same time, the recommended one for Ryzen is "schedutil" (I don't like it).

Grey, do you think this will work with my laptop's Ryzen5 3500U? That's a step below Zen2.

Most of this is new to me, but I'd like to try using your kernel and change_kernels with Fossa. Fossa's 5.4 kernel isn't giving me sound or wifi in my Lenovo.

So, this is a second-generation processor, Sandy Bridge.
Here, try version 5.15.26 for Sandy Bridge (5.15.27 was released yesterday, but it's too late :) ):
huge-5.15.26-fossapup64-sandybridge.tar.bz2
kernel_sources-5.15.26-fossapup64-sandybridge.sfs
