I have a savefile with a reproducible crash.
Disabling Nine and using only CSMT fixes the problem, with a sensible performance loss.
My system is nearly the same as manero666:
Manjaro + Deepin

If him have Xeon E3 1245 (however him dont clarify if xeon is socket 1155 or upper)
If is first generation (sandy bridge core) could be this:
http://ark.intel.com/products/52274/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E3-1245-8M-Cache-3_30-GHz
Stock 3.30ghz and 3.70ghz in turbo mode
Is more or less equivalent to core i7 2600
Back to cpu performance leave this test for courtesy of cpu world

When you use wine (CSMT or Not) higher frecuency with higher ipc is highly recomended
And amd bulldozer derivated (aka kaveri in your case) have many design failures, for example lower ipc per core, fpu shared, higher latencies in memory cache L2 and L3
However maybe next year zen improve before mentionated problems
Back to gpu side your gpu is considerably more slower than mannero use
Leave this specs for courtesy of gpu database
Radeon HD 7850

Radeon R9 380
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2734/radeon-r9-380
Back to capabilities have this:
1024 shaders in radeon HD 7850 vs 1792 shaders in R9 380
64 tmus in radeon HD 7850 vs 112 tmus in radeon R9 380
Rops quantity (32) are same in both models
Around 150gb/s of memory bandwidth in radeon HD 7850 vs around 170gb/s in R9 380
However R9 380 consume around 190w considerably more than radeon hd 7850 with around 130w
Back to problem you must report problem nine git for them can resolve this problem
