I don't think this is about RISC-V or AMD as much as it is the fact that their processors are failing prematurely and in warranty. And they've had to ship out a huge amount of replacements already and don't appear to have the underlying issue under control unless something has changed that I'm not aware of.

Yeah that's more realistic, was just being funny. Like people forgot the Haswell heat spreader stuff already...

RISC-V is promising though. Still too early to say for sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if it made some huge gains over the next ten years.
