I'll have more integrated graphics tests to come... Unfortunately I am a one-man show and only so much time to juggle everything. Initially focusing on CPU tests since they tend to be most trouble-free and reliable.
I haven't yet tested ECC with any Zen 5 desktop CPU. But yes in general with Zen 4 that ASRock Rack and Supermicro boards have worked out well. With time will try out ECC on Ryzen 9000 series.
Zen5 appears to officially support up to DDR5 5600, but unfortunately all of the ASRock Rack or Supermicro boards I looked at only supported DDR5 5200.
I may wait for new Zen5 boards, or maybe take a gamble on something like the Asus ProArt, where I saw comments online indicating that ECC is (unofficially?) supported.
Or other ASUS mainboards. For now ASUS seems to be the only desktop mainboard manufacturer that officially mentions in the docs support of "ECC and Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory".
Yeah it was due to the Open Compute Project AFAIK... Though for a little while AMD was telling me they really meant to call it "Radeon Open eCosystem" before then dropping that too with many still using the original name.
As I wrote in the article, it was privately developed the past 2+ years while being contracted by AMD during that time... In a private GitHub repo. Now that he's able to make it public / open-source, he squashed all the changes into a clean new commit to make it public. The ZLUDA code from 3+ years ago was when he was experimenting with CUDA on Intel GPUs.
This is the first time I am seeing it on their website as well. When writing the article earlier I couldn't find it on their website either... Just the email I received directly from the PCI-SIG press rep.
But yes a rather 'weird' announcement with little detail and Copprlink does show (TM) though can't find it in the USPTO database and does indeed seem odd name given established Copperlink breanding.
How is the title 'clickbait'? Calling It "LibreOffice Changing To Year.Month Based Versioning Scheme" or similar just makes it longer and less immediately clear... Really I honestly fail to see how it could be considered 'clickbait' for phrasing it as simply as possible.
The title is definitely supposed to play on the shock factor of 24 clearly not being immediately greater than 8, and possibly the mixed reactions to some other software moving away from SemVer (Firefox switching to Chrome's scheme comes to mind)
It wasn't immediately apparent to me that the new versioning scheme would be year.month/whatever, which is the real news, but it's less interesting.

"LibreOffice Changing To Year.Month Based Versioning Scheme" is far more clear than "LibreOffice 24.2 Will Succeed LibreOffice 7.6". The only reason I clicked through to the comments is because it was not immediately clear to me why LibreOffice would choose to skip to 24.2.
Yep sadly most laptop vendors don't care much about Linux... Or the Linux laptop vendors and others that do offer review samples, want them back in 30 days. So really doesn't work for long-term comparisons like this... But as mentioned by other commenters, the older Ice Lake and Tigerlake were explicitly used because they have AVX-512 support. For those just wanting to see newer AMD vs. newer Intel, that has already been covered in a separate article but this article here is specifically around "AVX-512".
Tigerlake is the most recent Intel laptop CPUs to officially support AVX-512... Thus can't do an Intel AVX-512 on/off comparison with any newer Intel laptop.
FWIW, at the AMD event in Texas last month where the Ryzen 7000 series was announced, everyone was given the same embargo date... Mostly all the US and EU reviewers there.
Maybe the China/Asia review briefings or so are going with a different date based on different retail availability or so? Hadn't heard of some reviewers getting a different embargo date, typically see that usually only for different geo availability or if getting a sample from a motherboard OEM / other partner and not the CPU company review embargo.
