- StavrosK 9y agoThat's fantastic. I know whom my next CPU will be made by.
- m_mueller 9y agoI still don‘t get how variant 1 is fixable with negligible impact. Do we have any details on this as of now?
- gbacon 9y agoA bit of PR spin in Variant 2: Differences in AMD architecture mean there is a near zero risk of exploitation of this variant. Vulnerability to Variant 2 has not been demonstrated on AMD processors to date. Near-zero is not zero.
