Family 15 (0Fh)[edit]
This family covers two CPU generations. Models 00h-2Fh are first generation Athlon 64 and Opteron processors with an integrated DDR memory controller. Models 40h and higher are members of the «NPT Family 0Fh». NPT is the New Platform Technology processor architecture encompassing server, desktop, and mobile platforms.[1] These processors have a DDR2 memory interface.
All processors of Family 0Fh use the K8 microarchitecture.
Having exhausted the 4-bit Base Family field, Family 0Fh introduced new CPUID semantics following the example of Intel’s Family 0Fh. On processors with a Base Family lower than 0xF the Extended Family and Extended Model fields are reserved and should be considered zero. On Family 0Fh processors the extended fields are valid, and the value of the Extended Family field must be added to the Base Family to distinguish Family 10h and later processors from Family 0Fh members. [2]
Adding the Extended Family to a Base Family stuck at 0Fh, rather than Extended Family providing high order bits, prevents legacy software evaluating only the base fields from identifying Family 10h and later processors as very old models missing required features.

AMD Plumbing Linux Support For Reading The CPU’s Protected Processor Identification Number (PPIN)
Written by Michael Larabel in AMD on 19 March 2020 at 07:23 PM EDT. 21 Comments
Going back to Ivy Bridge processors, Intel has supported «PPIN» as the Protected Processor Identification Number as a globally unique identification number set in the factory. It turns out recent AMD CPUs are also supporting PPIN and that reading their value is about to be supported on Linux.
The Protected Processor Identification Number (PPIN) is effectively a unique serial number for each processor. One of the intended use-cases for PPIN is in large data centers and multi-socket servers to be able to more easily identify a particular CPU, especially in case of problems. At least in Intel’s case, Intel can also translate a customer’s PPIN number back into the fab and production run of that particular CPU along with any other internal data in isolating any issues. Intel has supported reading the PPIN under Linux for years and plumbed it into the MCE (Machine Check Exception) code for allowing server administrators to potentially more easily identify a particular CPU in the event of problems as well as tracking CPU inventory.
AMD developers have been working on a patch for PPIN support within the AMD MCE code. The patch basically follows Intel’s implementation given their implementations of PPIN are nearly identical. The patch only mentions «newer» AMD CPUs support this feature and not specifying if that means Zen 2 or forthcoming Zen 3 or potentially only implemented by EPYC CPUs (the actual code is simply checking a particular feature bit, waiting to hear any clarification from AMD).
For now the AMD PPIN number is just being reported as part of the MCE logs and not exposed by other means, for those concerned about this globally unique CPU identifier being used for tracking purposes.

3DNews Technologies and IT market. News processors Leaks from benchmarks can no longer be trusted… The most interesting in the reviews
10/28/2022 [23:49], Andrey Sozinov It’s no secret that benchmarks can be fooled, and this week another trick was found. It turned out that AMD Ryzen processors can be easily renamed, thereby giving out the results of testing a more powerful chip for the results of a younger one.
It all started with the fact that the Geekbench benchmark database showed the results of tests of Ryzen 7000 processors that have not yet been presented, which looked quite plausible and were widely dispersed in the specialized media — we also had material on this subject. In the end, it turned out that this was all a fake organized by the Chips and Cheese website to show why such «leaks» should not be trusted. The PMCReader utility allows you to issue one processor after another. As Chips and Cheese explains, modern AMD processors have six registers for writing the CPUID. With the help of the mentioned utility, these registers can be easily changed (up to 48 characters can be entered), thereby issuing one CPU after another. This is how the Core i9-13900K can be made slower than the Core i9-12900K in a single-threaded test
Registers are usually written at CPU boot time. Applications such as Geekbench, CPU-Z, AIDA64 and others check just these registers to identify the CPU and display the result of the check in the system information. At the same time, the rest of the specifications are shown absolutely, right. However, there are applications that use other mechanisms, and they will not work. These are, in particular, HWiNFO and BenchMate. The same fake Ryzen 7 7800X Using the utility, you can get both a funny or unusual CPU name, for example, 3DNEWS, and a completely plausible one, as happened this week. The author of Chips and Cheese renamed the flagship Ryzen 9 7950X to Ryzen 7 7800X, turned off six of the sixteen cores and lowered the frequency, after which the resulting “new product” was tested in Geekbench. After that, a screenshot with the test result of the 10-core Ryzen 7 7800X, which AMD is allegedly preparing for release, began to spread on the Web. And many believed this leak. The processor was turned into a famous meme Thus, now it has become even more difficult to trust leaks with tests of certain processors that have not yet been presented. It may well turn out that we have just a fake created for the sake of a joke. Sources:
