Ryzen Pro heats French homes and offices
 

Apparently temperatures Ryzen is a good thing.

AMD has invited a French company called Qarnot to discuss how they're using Ryzen Pro processors to heat homes and offices for free.

The company uses the Q.rad - a heater that embeds three CPUs as a heat source - to accomplish this feat. "We reuse the heat they generate to heat homes and offices for free", the company says in a blog post. "Q.rad is connected to the internet and receives in real time workloads from our in-house computing platform."

The idea is that anyone in the world can send heavy workloads over the cloud to a Q.rad and have it render the task and heat a person's home in the process.

The two industries that are targeted by Qarnot include movies studios for 3D rendering and VFX, and banks for risk analysis. Qarnot is opting in for Ryzen Pro processors over Intel i7 processors due to the performance gain and heat output.
