AMD Ryzen Wikipage

Hi all

Quick question, I had hard freezes on my new AMD Ryzen 2700+. After 2 weeks of try and error and Google searches it turned out that I had to disable C-States in my BIOS.
As there is currently no Ryzen page in the wiki, is it worth to create one with only that information?

Best regards
Martin

Why not just add it to the troubleshooting section?

That would not fit. The pages you mentioned are about GPUs and I had trouble with the CPU.

Re: AMD Ryzen Wikipage

My question is also if it is worth to just add a short information about hard freezes for AMD Ryzen CPUs.
I do not have much of background information, I just found out that disabling the C-States in the BIOS made the hard freezes go away.
I think it is beneficiary for other users and I would have been glad to have such an information in the wiki.

But I do not know if someone will close/delete the wiki page if that is only 1 or 2 sentences.
