    Funny to see Intel fall down so hard, I’ve been running my i5 3450 for the last 10 years of intense unemployed gaming and that beast is still carrying me hard. It was simpler times

    It wouldn’t be the first time they claimed this. Wait for the researchers and users to validate first.

      IMO intell is scrambling to solve a hardware problem with software so they don’t have to do a massive and very, very costly recall.

      Until they unequivocally show this not to be the, just hang tight.

        They are delaying it more and more so that people won’t care and no recall will happen.

        Corpos are now allowed to sell broken shit with no repercussions. I mean they will probably finally fail and die but the ceo will get rich so job done.

          This might work for consumer markets, but they’ve got b2b partners with deep pockets and expensive lawyers that are not happy. Also, the problem is widespread enough that a class action suit would be a pretty big deal. I don’t think this’ll just blow over.
