Comment 213 for bug 1690085

I've been interested in getting a new AMD CPU, but being new to Linux this bug has scared me off sofar. Too complex for me to compile my own kernel yet. So I created an account to follow this bug here, and see if it gets fixed, maybe with the new Ryzen's coming next February, so rumours have it.

However, I would like to ask if anyone here knows if this bug has been happening on Threadrippers as well. AMD says the TR's are the sorted top 5 Zeppelin dies. Therefor if this bug is a general design issue, it should happen on those high end workstation CPU's as well, but I could not find any complaints. If it does not happen on these TR's, then it's a manufacturing error?
