- wolfgke 8y ago> Why can't Intel sell drop in replacements for the existing cpus out there? Can of worms? Even if this were financially suitable for Intel (it is not), a necessity for this is that Intel has a microarchitecture available that "really fixes these problems" - but there is none. I consider it as plausible that the old in-order Atoms are less prone to these problems - but do you really want such a much slower CPU?
