1994 all over again!
- cwillu 3y agoFDIV was a bug in the logical design, this is a over-aggressive clock tuning, I fail to see any resemblance whatsoever beyond intel being inside.
- crest 3y agoIt's no longer black and white like the FDIV bug, but if the default configuration leads to data corruption in heavy SIMD workloads... sure you can reduce clock speed or increase voltage until it works, but unless the mainboards violate the specs this is at least partly an Intel CPU flaw leading to data corruption.
