Destiny 2 AMD Ryzen 3000 Issues solved with chipset driver update
Bungie’s Destiny 2 doesn’t currently work with on AMD’s latest CPU. It’s was not clear why this is currently the case. The problem cropped up a few days ago when Ryzen 3000 early upgraders found they couldn’t run the game. A week ago, Redditor Trinsikk posted. AMD now has a solve available.
AMD has issued a statement regarding a fix for the continued compatibility problems Ryzen 3000 users have been dealing with:
"AMD has identified the root cause and implemented a BIOS fix for an issue impacting the ability to run certain Linux distributions and Destiny 2 on Ryzen 3000 processors. We have distributed an updated BIOS to our motherboard partners, and we expect consumers to have access to the new BIOS over the coming days."
Robert Hallock, the company's technical marketing head for processors, posted this (incl fix):
Concerning Destiny 2, this is indeed something we caught after launch. Plain and simple: I'm sorry. It is not a title that is in our standard test suite, as it's difficult to reliably benchmark. Going back to the topic of Destiny 2, I'm hoping you can help me test a workaround driver that should get you into the game. This is a beta chipset driver, and it may give you an installer warning or two if you're upgrading an existing driver, but I believe this should work around the D2 launch issue.

Actually, Destiny 2 doesn't run on Linux at all; the problems are separate, but, they're both related to the same underlying issue (rdrand).

RDRAND x86 instruction returning -1 is the culprit of boot issues on Linux distro with systemd requesting the value from motherboard firmware

Installed these on my x470 platform because why not. BTW, i've noticed this and previous official/stable version do not come anymore with power profiles for ryzen. Can anyone confirm it? Or is it because i'm on x470?

It's Destiny 2 on Linux... like .01% of people affected.
