Intel was supposed to have 20-30% advantage on single thread performance over Amd. Now I guess single or multiple thread AMD is better on Linux. I don't know why it makes me giddy thinking of the coming consumer wars between the 2.
- rdtsc 8y agoThis is how it should be. And this is going to net positive thing for AMD. If performance takes a hit by about 20% it is going to be noticeable. Next up I think people will start looking to upgrade to a faster CPU just to get back to last week's performance metrics. They might now consider AMD. If AMD finds this affects them less they should sponsor security researchers writing proof of concept exploits to convince people that that turning off the mitigation is an absolute no-no, so it will for force people to take a performance hit and go shopping for CPUs.
