Who said it wasn't public knowledge? According to the marketing material, there are 48 sensors for measuring energy consumption, and 20 temperature sensors....

At first it was like that, but it really depends on what BIOS and motherboard you are using.

The offset made it very hard for me to tweak...

Just updated BIOS for my PRIME X370-PRO this morning. According to release notes, it has the new agesa.

Actually, yes, you can get per core temp monitoring under Windows, at least on Ryzen. Not entirely sure about Threadripper, but why would it be any different...

This is normal. It's because some energy saving features aren't enabled while inside the BIOS interface. It's not just Zen either. Most CPU's are like...

Updated from Ubuntu-GNOME 17.04 to Ubuntu 17.10 today, and the Wayland experience seem very much the same. Mouse pointer doesn't refresh at more than...

Just think about how much hardware has changed in the last 30 years, and x.org is...

Uptime 1 day, 18 hours 30 minutes now on 4.12.12. I'm starting to think it doens't have the stability issues 4.13 had.

Suggestion: Work towards enabling hardware accelerated video playback out of the box. It does a lot for battery life when watching videos. I know Ubuntu...

Welcome GNOME 3.26. Looking forward to working with you any day now on my Arch laptop, and in Ubuntu 17.10 on my desktop once it releases.

Meanwhile, the official Ubuntu Zesty repos are still stuck at 0.24 :/

I can see Artful has 0.26 though, which is not that old.

Seemed to work fine for me when I used anything between Vista and 10 before ditching Windows completely early this year. I was mostly on AMD graphics...

[Brisse]

Windows has been able to recover the graphics driver without reboot since Windows 7 I think, maybe even Vista?...

[Brisse]

Indeed, and that's why I'm excited to give it another shot once I get 17.10 onto my main desktop PC. I have a VM with 17.10 for testing, but I know from...

Tried linux-kernel 4.13 patched with AMDGPU DC last week on my Ubuntu-GNOME 17.04 system with R7 1700X and R9 Fury.

- System randomly crashed...
