well I don't know what to do.
I was planning on buying really cheap and old Intel CPUs for my server but the extreme loss of performance to patch the issues means I'll have to wait another 5 years for Ryzen to get cheap so that I can buy those instead
why is everything so fucking cruel, I desperately need a server and I'm not paying 400 dollars for a good Ryzen CPU

What do you need a server for?
storage, plex, torrenting, seedbox, backup and mainly to get rid of the humming noise of hard drives
Just buy a used pre-built computer off of ebay and throw a few extra hdds in there then.
I use a pre '13 Intel Atom for this. They are as one of the few not vulnerable and are very cheap ($70 or something).
i thought every intel cpu was affected by the recent issues (ME, meltdown, spectre etc)
where did you read it's not affected at all?

You are right, my bad.
The old Atoms only aren't vulnerable to Meltdown. It's something I guess:

is u confused?
you were going to buy something old and cheap
but because of software patches you're worried it'll be too slow? so you have to wait another 5 years to buy something old and cheap then?
that's still a lot of money, and i doubt supermicro boards support it, or ECC
I feel like he needs a mobo and RAM too.
>I'm not paying 400 dollars for a good Ryzen CPU
if you're destitute the last thing you need is a server
get a pre-2013 atom
or amd
or powerpc
or sparc
or arm
tried it.
the dam thing is so old and crappy i couldn't open it.
bull shit
listen to yourself
too old and crappy you couldn't open it!?
bitch please
>i couldn't open it
What? I mean I understand you couldn't open it without the risk of breaking the case but since it's unusable anyway why give a shit? Tear that case off.

Would you be interested in Intel pentinium 4 2 cores?
>The most affected systems are the ones with older cpu's
>On older OS's
I might have the tinfoil hat a bit too tight, but I'm starting to think this is all a clever ruse to slow older parts down and get everyone to upgrade. I mean, even after this, normies would still buy Intel and M$ regardless.
>is u confused?
How about stop speaking like a fucking nigger.
