BMW,

Palomino's major flaw when it is used with modern mainboards. AMD responded to our video and will be setting new guidelines for all mainboard manufacturers. These consist of a modification for all upcoming Socket A motherboards, which are to be integrated with a special electronic switching mechanism to protect the CPU from overheating.

The good news about this solution is that it guarantees that the CPU will survive; the bad news is that data safety is no longer guaranteed. The PC is not shut down properly, and instead it is switched off quite abruptly.


Data Integrity problem, in high RAS requirement servers, the dreaded "DI", gets a priority zero, severity zero every time. Oh well, better than a cooked chip.
