I wonder if some of what people interpret as hardware problems are actually software bugs that only trigger on new CPUs... I recently hit this testing pre-release kernels on my gaming PC, a 9900X3D: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250623083408.jTiJiC6_@linutronix.de/ https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250623083408.jTiJiC6_@linutro... A pile of older Skylake machines was never able to reproduce that bug one single time in 100+ hours of running the same workload. The fast new AMD chips would almost always hit it in a few hours.
