1 month agoI moved from an FX8350 to a R5 5600G a few years ago, having run it for about 9 years. Initially I didn’t think I’d notice much difference, but frankly it’s an entirely different ballgame.
So it’s a vulnerability that requires you to.already have been compromised. Hardly seems like news.
I can understand AMD only patching server chips that by definition will be under greater threat. On the other hand it’s probably not worth the bad publicity not to fix more.
