Gaming preformance wont be affected

2018-01-05 19:29:33 UTC  

Oh, really, well I guess that's better for me, then.

2018-01-05 19:30:38 UTC  

Benchmarking websites have to redo everything that was released by intel in the last 10 years and set up new benchmarks

2018-01-05 19:31:35 UTC  

Performance impact is higher if you're doing virtualization, apparently. We gotta wait and see.

2018-01-05 19:31:58 UTC  

Most of the impact will be cloud hosts, they instantly lost up to 30% in server performance.

2018-01-05 19:32:11 UTC  

I guess we'll have to wait, then.

2018-01-05 19:32:15 UTC  

So they will probably increase their prices.

2018-01-05 19:32:47 UTC  

We know what the Linux kernel patch looks like, we have yet to see Microsoft's patch.

2018-01-05 19:32:47 UTC  

Well this is a PR win for AMD

2018-01-05 19:33:34 UTC  

If you're thinking of building a gaming rig, CPU prices will probably go down.

2018-01-05 19:34:08 UTC  

Yes I am waiting on that

2018-01-05 19:34:30 UTC  

Wanted to buy a few weeks ago but now I am waiting how this plays out

2018-01-05 19:34:42 UTC  

Can't afford a new rig.

2018-01-05 19:34:56 UTC  

And mine it's not that outdated.

2018-01-05 19:37:43 UTC  

there's no need to wait, the performance impact is factually established at 5-30% depending on workload

2018-01-05 19:38:14 UTC  

which essentially translates to ~0 for gaming use

2018-01-05 19:40:36 UTC  

phoronix has some tests where 3d benchmarks are hit by ~3%, which is nothing to consider

2018-01-05 19:40:55 UTC  

Do you think it will impact prices?

2018-01-05 19:41:00 UTC  

no

2018-01-05 19:41:55 UTC  

perhaps for the xeon line, but I don't care about the prices of new xeon processors

2018-01-05 19:55:58 UTC  

(that video just confirms what daniel and me said)

2018-01-05 19:58:25 UTC  

though he does say that AMD is not affected due to "architectural differences", which is not true, it's not really an important point except to say that if you use him as a source, perhaps get a new source

2018-01-05 22:09:34 UTC  

Come on folks, more anti-altright memes would be appreciated

a WASR is a Romanian AK

specifically a US-import semi-auto AKM pattern rifle
