Here we are - 3600 which was still under manufacture 2-3 years ago are not get patched. Shame on you AMD, if it is true.

    Really not good enough from AMD. I wonder if Intel wasn’t a complete dumpster fire right now if they would still cut off the fix at Zen 3 (I doubt it). There’s really no reason not to issue a fix for these other than they don’t want to pay the engineers for the time to do it, and they think it won’t cost them any reputational damage.

    I hate that every product and company sucks so hard these days.

      They did issue a fix: “Buy a new CPU please!”

      That’s why they don’t mind the reputation hit. If 1 person swears allegiance to Intel as a result but 2 people buy new AMD chips, they’re still ahead. And people will forget eventually. But AMD won’t forget the Q3 2024 sales figures.

        Well, guess who’s not buying next gen Ryzen?

        They are doing similar stuff with deliberately delaying Linux driver capabilities for Radeon 7xxx series, to make more GPUs die out faster, by overheating (zero RPM fan until 60°+).
