Researchers uncover Spectre-like Intel CPU vulnerability called BranchScope
https://overclock3d.net/news/cpu_mainboard/researchers_uncover_spectre-like_intel_cpu_vulnerability_called_branchscope/1 At the end even hundreds of patches will not help to Intel Processors, except for one thing. To cripple performance.
I believe thousands wait some AMD CPU capable to reach 4.5GHz to say Goodbye to Intel.
2018 will be remembered as worse year for Intel company and owners of Intel processors.
At least this helped me to keep X99 more until things settle down for 2-3 years.
I don't say I would not replace for X299, I would, Instantly, but nothing push me to upgrade on any cost.
BranchScope will likely be the first of many new speculative execution attacks that will be uncovered in the coming years, which will undoubtedly lead to changes in CPU designs moving forward, securing this vital part of modern processor architectures.
