AMD FX CPUs are old but mostly already patched to work right.
AMD FM2 A/CPUs are often broken in terms of IOMMU, but there may be
workarounds available.
Modern Intel CPUs(skylake) are broken for now, read about it in a
neighborhood thread.
4xxx intel CPUs mostly show a stable working setup.
In terms of performance i won't flame a holy war about comparing 2011
bulldozer to 2014 haswell or whatever.
Generally, the more cores you can pin to the VM, the less latency problems
you have.
