it increases thread usage on amd chips improving max fps and improving lows.... and would you care if it breaks it on an intel system lol you are doing it on an amd system..... and btw the 10700k usage in this game goes to 70+ while limiting the 5800 or 3700 or 2700 etc to under 50 which while playing frametimes are horrible... i beat the game and basically 100% the game and about to do a 2nd playthrough.. the hex fix doesnt break anything on an amd system and it helps with max avg and low fps and improves frametimes.... so it works
