Legend:   Win   Loss   Draw/No contest   Notes

gollark: No, Ryzen does still use IF between CCXes.
gollark: Which mostly affects latency or something.
gollark: The main issue IIRC is that the Infinity Fabric runs at the same frequency or half the frequency of the RAM.
gollark: You can display other blinkenlight-type things. I use netdata for my excessively-graph-filled pages.
gollark: Yes, but if a tablet is available...
