Just to add, the boards I saw on the net are all gaming boards. I
need something for software development (not necessarily an
ultra-powerful gaming system). But I do use VM's. If anyone has
tried and tested recommendation for boards and graphic cards too,
please let me know.<br>

Thanks !<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
I've been using Ubuntu 14.04LTS on an Intel processor for many
years. I am now looking at building a new machine for software
development this time using an AMD processor instead of Intel - as
it looked like cost effective and yet powerful enough. <br>
<br>
I am thinking of using a AMD Ryzen 2nd Generation Processor
(mostly AMD Ryzen 7 2700X or a AMD Ryzen 5 2600X) and an X470
based motherboard (Gigabyte X470 Aorus Gaming [but not the Wifi
version as it's too expensive and I don't need the on board Wifi]
- based on
<a class="gmail-m_7164660061461064803moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.techradar.com/news/computing-components/motherboards/best-motherboard-14-reviewed-and-rated-904229" target="_blank">https://www.techradar.com/news/computing-components/motherboards/best-motherboard-14-reviewed-and-rated-904229</a>
or MSI X470 Gaming M7 AC Motherboard)<br>
<br>
Does anyone have experience using this combination or any other
AMD Ryzen 2nd generation systems for software development use?
Just wanted to know if it's OK to go ahead since it's a
considerable investment OR is it safer to stick with Intel based
systems? If you have any recommendations for motherboard-processor
that would be great too. Had a cursory glance at some websites
talked about some GCC issues with 1st gen Ryzen processors. Also
one dealer told me that using the newer AMD processors one needs
to install Ubuntu 18, and it won't work with older Ubuntu
versions, any idea how true is this?<br>
<br>
Would appreciate an early response. If anyone has experience/knows
of other people's experiences building AMD 2nd gen Ryzen systems
using Linux, kindly share as I plan to order soon.<br>
<br>
Thanking in anticipation.<br>
<br>
Ravi<br>
