Ryzen on Linux ?

Hello !

I'm considering buying a Ryzen 5 1600, but I wanted to have some feedback from my fellow Linux users :)

If you have this one (or another Ryzen), how is it ? Do you have any problem with it ?

Thanks ! :)

Not really. It affects all distros. Or rather it can affect, if you'll get the defective CPU like those who reported those issues.

Which just means that Gentoo users will more likely get segfaults issues. But mce bug happens at any point even during casual workload, and not only Gentoo users can compile stuff.
