How has your Ryzen been working for you, Mark? I've been thinking of replacing my 10-year old HP desktop containing an Intel Core(TM)2 Quad CPU. I've used bunches of Opterons in decades past and wouldn't mind ditching Intel again. Are you running 42.3 on it? Any problems?
I'm building a new Ryzen system for myself. At the moment, it won't POST, and I don't have time to debug it :-( My current system is an Athlon X-III. I've bought myself a Ryzen-3. Something I was unaware of (but it probably wouldn't make difference) is that AMD's numbering system is now similar to Intel's - a Ryzen-3 is like an i3, Ryzen-5 to i5, and Ryzen-7 to i7. And 3 is a basic cpu, 5 is a hefty desktop cpu if you use your system for rather more than just the simple things, and 7 is high-end gaming, video-processing etc. Sounds like I should have gone for a Ryzen-5, but they cost a lot more money ... maybe I'll upgrade sometime ...
