To all people considering buying new processors.
If you dont bother to read it there are two attacks that could possibly affect your newly purchased cpu. The meltdown exploit sounds like they can patch against it, but the spectre exploit can only be mitigated against. To actually fix this exploit, they have to redesign the cpus. Unless its a dire need i would consider holding off on future cpu purchases until they address these issues ,unless you're confident about what goes into your computer. User beware, be safe out there boys and girls.
