tldr: should I never ever update my Windows 8 again lest it becomes slow af?
- dvfjsdhgfv 9y agoIt seems so. Sooner or later people will post some benchmarks so we'll have more precise knowledge. At this point the statements from MS are a bit fuzzy.
- c12 9y agoFuzzy, yes. But they do declare that a lot of people will notice slow downs day to day.
- wklauss 9y agoThey need to ve very conservative in the statements and err on the side of caution. It's better for people to find out is not as bad as they thought than to find out it's worse than they thought.
- chrisper 9y agoMicrosoft will do so as well: >We will publish data on benchmark performance in the weeks ahead.
- fuzzy2 9y agomore like "tldr: wait for benchmarks" Or just do them yourself, like others did: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/7ohbfi/i5_2500k_meltdown_bench_pre_vs_post_patch_kb/ https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/7ohbfi/i5_2500k_m... http://www.guru3d.com/articles-summary/windows-vulnerability-cpu-meltdown-patch-benchmarked.html http://www.guru3d.com/articles-summary/windows-vulnerability...
