>Future processors from Intel will contain mitigations at the hardware level to protect against two of the three Spectre and Meltdown variants, starting with a new batch of 8th generation CPUs due out in the second half of this year
>Today, I want to provide several updates that show continued progress to fulfill that pledge. First, we have now released microcode updates for 100 percent of Intel products launched in the past five years that require protection against the side-channel method vulnerabilities discovered by Google. As part of this, I want to recognize and express my appreciation to all of the industry partners who worked closely with us to develop and test these updates, and make sure they were ready for production.
With these updates now available, I encourage everyone to make sure they are always keeping their systems up-to-date. It’s one of the easiest ways to stay protected. I also want to take the opportunity to share more details of what we are doing at the hardware level to protect against these vulnerabilities in the future. This was something I committed to during our most recent earnings call.
How low can you go? release another same chip (+hardware fixes) 5 MONTHS later!
the fact intel is doing this shows they literately have nothing else better in the pipeline coming out anytime soon. normally they would wait until their latest and greatest to do such a thing.

it helps being the slowest processor on the market.

>"nothing better to do" >Company improving its own product Wow I read some dumb shit here but that's certainly today's post

this place can be a blind hate train for a lot of things, thats not even the tip of the iceberg m8

Yes, concerning important tech for hospitals, vehicles, and the military.
Christopher Morales
of course don't forget also to BUY our NEW Z390 Motherboard! Better VRM cooling and OC capabilities than Z370!
DAILY REMINDER that Intel knew about Meltdown several months before they released Coffee Lake processors (in fact, they even rushed the coffe lake processor launch by a couple of months)
boycott intel
Parker Taylor
So... The patches are for their current and last gen cpus only. Probably won't see one for my i7 4790k. Intel can go suck a dick.
Grateful AMD caught up and has something for $150 that isn't a piece of shit unlike Intel
Robert Ross
Why tho? I can buy AMD which is also IME free as well

Yes it is goy. That's why blessed Intel Corporation has been selling the same x86 architecture since 2015.

Intel is either criminally incompetent, criminally negligent or criminal.

>these PCs have hardware faults that can be exploited >intel releases improved chip on same architecture to address this >"HURR BUY OUR NEW CHIP GOYIM HAHAH THE KIKES ARE AT IT AGAIN" I fucking hate this board.
Dylan Cruz
>fooling customers by changing just the flag bit so chips (((appear))) to not be vulnerable >addressing the issue chose only one
Oliver Johnson
To be fair, AMD also uses p6 in zen and the innovation what bulldozer was supposed to failed. It seems that further you deviate from p6, the worse the uarch will be.
Gabriel Green
shhhh
Blake Nguyen
tfw you actually have an uncle who is an engineer and manager at Intel and is working on these new chips but no one will ever believe you
i was gonna post it to Sup Forums but the board was frozen at that time. kek

What's Haifa like?
Leo Jenkins
are you sure it's not nintendo?

Would it have been better if they kept producing the same chip with the same flaw? They simply stopped producing a chip and started producing another, exactly the same except for a bugfix. What exactly are you mad about?
I own a FX-8350 btw.

>not offering a trade in or replacement instead >go buy the newer model goy Even intel knows their customer base are a bunch of dumbasses.

daily reminder to kill all kikes. pics unrelated. but you can kill pajeets and muslims too
Sandy and Ivy Bridge are currently in 'pre-beta' (which means they're not getting updated in Jewtel speak) according to some microcode document I read a few weeks back.
Grayson Williams
Don't forget the new motherboard too!

women attacking men happens a lot because of the laws and the duluth model. if you are a man you can't defend yourself against a woman. I would be afraid of sleeping with women and getting attacked.
