At least the ones built in the last ten years.
Ehm, no. The 20-30 percent number is only for tests that were made to have a lot of the affected operations, and unless you're running virtual machines you're not going to have anything near that.

Well then, my CPU was officially presented on 8 January 2007, which makes its design 11 years old -- if not a tad more.Dont take my 10years figure as hard data.fox wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2018 3:47 amCornflakes_91 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 03, 2018 7:33 pmLong story short: all of them

With such an old CPU I was caressing the idea of upgrading -- right in these days, in fact. Lucky me: I kept postponing it because the motherboard also needs to change (because socket).
I was eyeing a modern i7 8th gen, but in light of these news I suppose that AMD makes very nice processors too...

Spectre potentially has a wider reach. It affects some chips in smartphones, tablets and computers powered by Intel, ARM and AMD. It is thought to be much harder to patch and no fix for it has yet been made widely available.
