    This all screams smear campaign
     
    1. 24 hour disclosure instead of industry standard 90/180 day


    2. Amdflaws links to a YT video, with comments disabled

    3. YT Channel with video was just just March of this year



    4. Domain (website records) for this "16 years in operation" company don't exist any earlier than February of this year

    6. This OTHER sketchy quote from their disclaimer



    7. Exploits are common sense when it comes to security
    MASTERKEY: "Exploiting MASTERKEY requires an attacker to be able to re-flash the BIOS with a specially crafted BIOS update. "
    REBUTTAL: By the time you let attacker install BIOS you are already PWND
     
    RYZENFALL: Exploitation requires that an attacker be able to run a program with local-machine elevated administrator privileges. Accessing the Secure Processor is done through a vendor supplied driver that is digitally signed.
    REBUTTAL: By the time you let attacker to have admin rights, they can do anything they want anyway!
     
    FALLOUT: Exploitation requires that an attacker be able to run a program with local-machine elevated administrator privileges. Accessing the Secure Processor is done through a vendor supplied driver that is digitally signed.
    REBUTTAL: Same as above. Not a major concern
     
    CHIMERA: A program running with local-machine elevated administrator privileges. Access to the device is provided by a driver that is digitally signed by the vendor.
    REBUTTAL: Same as above. Not a major concern.

    jimakos234 reacted to SpaceGhostC2C in Ryzen segmentation faults when compiling heavy GCC Linux loads   
    "Segmentation fault" is the error message you get 99% of the times you fail at compiling something  There are many, many different mistakes and problems that can lead to the same error message.
    The fact that only one compiler is having issues probably points to how said compiler handles some instruction set. I'd indeed would rather phrase it as "GCC having problems compiling in Ryzen" than the current title - the fix probably lies on the compiler side.

    better get an asus p5kc(4 ddr2 slots, 2 ddr3 slots) if you are on the 775 socket, paired with a xeon 5450 and  8gb 1333mhz ddr3 ram , since single 4gb ddr2 dimms (and 2x2) tend to be more expensive nowadays than any ddr3 ram kits.

    OCZ is great, too. That Toshiba flash +in-house controllers = REALLY fast speeds (my OCZ Radeon R7 240GB is as fast as my Samsung 850 EVO) and great reliability.
     
    Also Crucial. Also Team don't make horrible ones. A-Data are OK.

    Well.. that´s for you to decide. Faster write speed or longer warranty.
    I personally think i would go for speed, because reasons that lie beyond my understanding... i just like fast stuff
    Realisticly, 180mb/s would fine if you copy from a HDD to the SSD, although it will make your life possibly a little bit slower when you unzip or install stuff...
     
    btw. found this benchmark shot of the Intenso.

    my only concern is that the sp550 speed drops to HDD levels when moving large files, thats whats holding me back from buying it, and i am closer to the sandisk.
    also if there was  a proper review on the ssd plus, i would have bought at once. Thats why i am still confused
     
    thank you for your suggestion, but for the time being,i cannot afford any more expenses than the ssd

    an i5 4460 should do the job, or a 4690k if you want to OC( or i5 6500/6600k but you will need ddr4 for those)
    if you want an i7 like cpu on the cheap the xeon 1231 v3 is the way to go
