Hi.

I'm sure I've read somewhere (and not especially recently) that Linux on AMD
Ryzen CPUs can be unreliable and/or surprisingly poor performance.
Can anyone comment on current (eg: Beowulf / Chimaera with standard kernels)
operation on such machines?
If it matters, I'm looking at desktop / tower / server motherboards and not
laptops, and I don't care two hoots about graphics - this would be for
networked machines accessed exclusively remotely.
Any opinions from personal experience, or pointers to reliable data, on the
topic would be appreciated :)
Thanks,
Antony.
One of my systems is a early build with a AMD 2400G a few years ago
which had some graphics issues with X. One kernel later and manually
added AMD APU firmware from kernel.org for the graphics part and
everything runs smoothly ever since.
Grtz,
Nick
