From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I was actually on the fence between that one and the non f for a lower power server build. Something that would finally put my 7700k to rest.

That's not affected by the relatively serious issues plaguing more recent Intel CPUs so it's probably fine. If it was the more recent generations, there are some major and probably physical defects causing problems for those.
