    I dont know.

    If I had my choice between a CPU that has a vulnerability that can only be exploited if the system is already compromised

    or a CPU that are full of oxidation cancer, or frying themselves and doing irreparable damage… Which the company is being excessively shady about concretely admitting to any RMA promises and wwill all eventually die in short order…

    I think I’m gonna go with the Ryzen and not leave leave my computer outside at defcon.

      Sure but we’re talking about several generation old CPUs: nothing’s wrong with Intel’s 10/9/8th gen CPUs, which would be the contemporary ones to the Ryzen chips in question.

        You’re correct. I despise this ridiculous acceptance of the notion of trust of one man’s “work” which fails if we’re lucky and almost guaranteed a back-stabbing three-letter’s removed.
