Intel's latest Core processors have serious security flaws

well if they can fix this one w/ a bios update / software patches they will be probably happy vs the 6 series chipset... lol..

I had been about to buy Sandy Bridge.. right as this news broke .. waited it out for the fixed boards.. my wife is still rocking that i5-2500K rig


But certainly all who argue Coffee Lake was a rush job because of ryzen will be all over this.


Amusingly I had also been recently starting to ponder upgrading from my i7-4770K.. and had decided to wait till next year~ for more chipset options/ more optimized (presumably??) incremental processor update.
 
My Gigabyte Aurus Gaming 7 Z370 had a bios update that fixed this on 10/31.
 
Platform, not CPUs. ;)

People with older AIB boards will as usual, Intel or AMD rarely if ever receive updates.
