Just lmao
AMD is so fucking incompetent, they fuck everything up.
Jackson Butler
I too spend my time benching specific instructions for a specific CPU benchmark.
Kevin Diaz

Jacob Watson
but they're right, when was the last time you bought a CPU just to look at benchmark numbers?
I bought a r7 1700 and my prev cpu (i5 4670) doesn't even come close to it in video editing and multitasking
not to mention it didn't crash a single time during any workload while overclocked to 3.5ghz on a stock cooler (gonna oc it more when I get a better cooler), so what's your problem?
David Smith
>What also makes this important is because a simple application, running at user privileges (i.e. lacking special super-user/admin privileges), has the ability to crash the machine. Such a code could even be executed through virtual machines, and poses a security issue, with implications for AMD's upcoming "Naples" enterprise processor launch.
This shit is pretty serious desu senpai
Jayden Morris
I really wanted to give AMD a chance but with this, it's over.

Oh wow, some obscure benchmark crashes Windows.
Matthew Cruz
well,
1. noone in my apartment would even want to crash my computer, while I am on it, which means this is irrelevant to me and most people
2. I'm fairly sure that servers are securely protected both from internet attacks, and noone in their right mind would even try to crash a server for some reason, and most reasons I can think of relate to wars or are tinfoil-tier
people will over-react over this, as they always have

context is "Such a code could even be executed through virtual machines, and poses a security issue, with implications for AMD's upcoming "Naples" enterprise processor launch."
so you tell me who would want/need to crash a server
Eli Collins
>who would want/need to crash a server
Really makes you think
Nolan Flores
You could buy a VPS and crash the metal thus all other VPS, dipshit. This is fucking serious.
Jaxson Smith
still no answer
Jaxson Butler
thank you for the first proper answer, I understand the implications of this now, no need to be so hostile though
Brody Cruz
Sorry it's taking me a long time to think about who would want to crash a server
Carson James
by your retarded amdtard logic we don't need ssl for banking because who would sniff packets
Lucas King
you're just projecting now
again, instead of giving a proper answer you're being unnecessarily witty and sarcastic

how many intel dicks do you have in your body right now, retard?

I'm not gonna buy some 3rd world poojeet shit that is riddled with bugs

>this little known benchmark has been tailored by its developer to be highly specific to the CPU micro-architecture, with separate binaries for each major x64 architecture (eg: Bulldozer, Sandy Bridge, Haswell, Skylake, etc.), and as such the GitHub repository does not have a "Zen" specific binary.
>does not have a "Zen" specific binary.
I mean my next card will probably be Intel, but this doesn't seem like a big deal at all. It's a brand new architecture.
Lucas Garcia
>card
*chip
Noah Barnes
AMD is literally chink tier
All AMD threads should be moved to chink shit general
Elijah Hill
so I'm guessing you're not gonna buy intel either? because their cpus had issues too, and they weren't new architectures either

I'm guessing you're not going to be buying nvidia either, because their GPUs also had issues, remember?

Jonathan Cruz
Compare the Kaby Lake launch to Ryzen
Ryzen launch is a complete bug riddled disaster of a launch
My Kaby Lake CPU is on the way right now, I have no regrets
Joshua Foster
so, intel PR is retarded for trying to push on AMD through this
data center security guys aren't that stupid to fall for clickbait
Blake Russell
because it's same freaking cpu as last year
Jace Hall
>4c/8t in 2017
fuck off to Sup Forums

what did you expect from a completely new architecture?
jesus, you guys are dense as fuck
Jose Bell
>The Haswell-specific binary (along with, we imagine, Skylake), adds support for the FMA3 instruction-set, which Ryzen supports, and which lends some importance to the discovery of this bug.
it's supposed to work

They did nothing when AMDrones were shitting this place up with their typical overhyping bullshit for months.
I don't understand why they're supposed to do something now.
Cooper Wright
you can always go back to your safe space /r/amd

nah just wait the cheaper chips will fuck AMD to pure s u c c sess

Parker Bell
Went through whole thread but no one actually said what the fuck an FMA3 instruction is or how it's relevant to typical computing workloads.
Is this another one of those threads where people attack each other over the performance of something like AVX2, despite the fact that nothing actually uses it?
Gabriel Williams
It's just a floating point arithmetic instruction set.
Fused Multiply Add with 3 integers.
It's not important what it is, only that it can shut the entire server down with high level access.
Problem is being fixed, so it means nothing.
Adam Evans
It's ok to have a CPU launch completely riddled with bugs and performance issues
Yes it's completely fine
Nicholas Martin
Man intel never does Microcode updates, this is bull shit,
intel4lyfe
Anthony Perez
Spreading FUD is all they can do at the moment as Intel has nothing to offer against the Niples-lineup or against the upcoming APUs in the forseeable future, and the agressive pricing of R7 pulled the rug under the whole X99 lineup

Gee I wonder what's the problem.
Further in the thread:
>From the hwbot thread, a fix is coming with a new microcode. Also disabling SMT prevent the crash.

Is there a CVE for this yet?

Yes it can and will be fixed with microcode update. Same happened with Haslel/Broadlel/Skymeme.
Aaron Cox
>FMA exploit(with still unknown hole, as other FMA benchmarks run fine) targeting 5% of total hardware and even less than 1% since this is currently Zen specific
Right, that's a much better idea than just some niggerscript that can target everyone phone, desktop and tablet browser on the planet.
