I switched to AMD in 2018 and haven't had any issues. If you aren't running ECC memory the CPU drivers are the least of your concerns.

- dijit 7y agoWhy would ECC affect anything? FWIW I used a 1st Gen Ryzen at home and it would constantly BSOD under Windows but ran completely stable with linux (this was when Ryzen was brand new)
- llampx 7y agoWhat I mean is that switching to ECC memory will do more for your stability than the choice of Intel or AMD.
- numpad0 7y ago1st gen Ryzen had some suboptimal values in some very internal parameter that caused incorrect DRAM reads affecting all OS. They accepted warranty claims and later released BIOS updates. I doubt ECC would help prevent it(other than maybe by being slower?)
