Originally posted by Holograph View PostIt seriously pisses me off that it took Phoronix articles for AMD to realize they needed to look into this. I don't care if they claim they've done it. Too little, too late. What happens next time there is a problem? AMD will ignore their customers unless they feel pressured enough to fix the problems.

Originally posted by efikkan View PostThe hardware defect is not related to compilation. It just happens that the problem is most easily reproduced with compilation, since it stresses the right parts of the core. This is why these chips have no problem with Prime95 or Cinebench, the FPUs and ALUs just work fine. And who does a lot of heavy compilation? Linux developers, especially Gentoo users.
Something like that?

Regular users should be pretty fine with quad-cores still, and are thus not running Ryzen.

then [email protected] has to choose between being the best darling of the "Corporatism/Fascist Monopole/Duopoly evil companies."
or he is true loyal to the community.
