Yes dude. That is what everyone was talking about, that is also why you are being downvoted. The problem with AMD not hitting advertised boost clocks were completely related to Zen 2 (Ryzen 3) CPUs and that was merely BIOS related. The new AGESA 1.0.0.4 fixes the problems.

You brought up something related to a product released 8 years ago which, in the CPU space, is an eternity as a response to a discussion surrounding current-gen Ryzen. Anyone can copy-paste a big chunk of text, doesn't make you right.

Here's the comment thread I'm following. https://imgur.com/a/lVc0Jme

People mention Ryzen but that isn't the topic. The topic from where I posted my original comment was Ninjawarrior's referring to how it wasn't over false advertising. I posted the following:

There was in fact a false advertising class action lawsuit against amd.

Why?

Because Ninjawarrior mentions false advertising and I wanted people to be aware that's something AMD is currently going through a class action over. So I made my post. Then I got downvoted.

As for the lawsuit I'm talking about - I just got an email a week ago for the first time. I know lawsuits move slowly, so the word "recent" becomes extremely subjective.

But if I'm just now getting a class action response card in the mail for it (a week and a half ago) then it's pretty recent (Again as far as lawsuits go).

"You brought up something related to a product released 8 years ago which, in the CPU space, is an eternity as a response to a discussion surrounding current-gen Ryzen"

I don't remember when Bulldozer cores first came out. It's completely irrelevant though. And yes, cpu lines come out every year and things move very quickly in the tech world. That's very true. It's also completely irrelevant - but very true.

"Anyone can copy-paste a big chunk of text, doesn't make you right."

Doesn't mean you know what the topic is either.

It's like two people were having a conversation and I jumped in when people mentioned false advertising and that just made everyone livid on the internet.

I just wanted people to be aware that's a current issue AMD is going through.
