I think more people need to see this.

Unfortunately yes because I mainly use my system for gaming, and have a 240hz monitor, every frame matters to me, just as apple should have option for end users not to throttle performance it would be great to see intel users have that option also

Nice. Gimme those drives.

Gamers shouldn't have much to worry about - the below tests are done on a 1080ti at 1080p pushing the bottleneck to the CPU.
Though this is early, there doesn't seem much need for concern in gaming. At least not yet.

They'd have patched it long ago if they knew, they are now down 6%, I don't know what that is in USD, but it's a freaking lot, plus the reputational damage.. That's a big gamble to take to punt a few more CPU's especially as AMD haven't been remotely competitive for the last ten years.
I saw that Linux kernel submission earlier. It's interesting that at the bottom it shows the diff between their submisison and the prevoius version. So there is a version out there which assumes that all CPU's are affected. So the first patch might also hit AMD until a second patch is released. I'm sure this will be released quickly under Linux since we can see that the patch has been submitted by AMD themselves. But how quickly for Windows since only MS have control over it?

Yep servers will be totally unaffected by this... Well as long as they run AMD

Read my post, I said gamers. I don't give a monkeys about servers tbh. Workstations and desktop CPU's are my thing.
They are your thing though. Unless the you only pay games offline and post spam.
That is going to hurt.
I think he's referring to online game servers, which definitely will be affected, but that's a problem for the big data centers more than the end user.. I bet they are playing merry hell with Intel over this, they'll be running thousands of Intel CPU's.
Game patches.

I have posted gaming benchmarks, does that come under spam?
If anything 90% of the this thread is spam as nobody knows how this is going to affect things.
Missing information in technical reporting from mainstream media has become so common though.
Edit: It does mention it!
