Protected against Meltdown but not Spectre because Intel doesn't feel like making patches for older CPU's like the one in my X200.
Pretty much given up hope for local Spectre protection. Kinda hoping the migitations Google put in Chrome will be enough to protect against remote attacks.
Oh yeah, that Meltdown patch from Microsoft slowed down my CPU but not that noticeable for non-intensive tasks.

My motherboard manufacturer still hasn't released a bios update with the fix.
Though they did at least confirm x99 motherboards will be getting a bios update eventually, the newer x299 and lower end consumer chipsets will get the update first.
>implying 80 IQ >implying subhuman lulz, nice strawman :^)))) I bet you strawman a gf in your head when you jack off like a delusional pathetic estrogen filled numale. Also don't point out the irony by me calling you that, I already got you covered.
unironically kill yourself you waste of human potential

you can't know if you're being compromised in fact tons of computers could be exploited right now and no one would know it.

Man I really dont wanna brick this pc... its my main pc.
Xavier Lee
Yeah looks like 99 and up for msi.
No love for 87/97

It's hard to brick it if you perform the proper steps. Anyway, for haswell, you can download the update from Microsoft if you are running the latest version of Windows 10.
Thats it? doesn't it need a new bios to go along with it?
Justin Lopez
This isnt part of the autoupdates? Because if it is then I already have and the tool says im unprotected from spectre only
Wyatt Young
I don't think I ever got a fix for spectre and I'll take speed over protection, I use 2FA for everything important and change passwords regularily, also have a smartphone I use for 2FA and since it's ARM who cares, everyone in these threads is AMD shills
James Gray
i am also interested in using the smm or me to start developing cheats, where could i learn more about them being used in a malicious way?
it wont run since I am on windows 10 1803, the update is for the older W10, and it would undo itself anyways when W10 is updated.
So have to wait for W10 to roll it out for the new 1803 that just came out. Maybe they removed it so the PC would run faster and people wouldnt attribute the slowdown to the big spring update to W10?

so are there any other insights on the nu-err... ng-spectre stuff?

What features does a processor need to have to be vulnerable to Spectre? From what I've read it sounds like a processor needs branch prediction and out of order execution to potentially be vulnerable, but the ARM Cortex A8 is listed as being vulnerable despite not having out of order execution (all other ARM processors that are listed as lacking out of order execution are listed as not vulnerable).
Robert Hall
No, I use a PPC IMac G3. I am pretty much safe.
Noah Gonzalez
It's in-order but still does some kind of speculative execution, which is where Spectre lies.
Dominic Perry

Austin Rivera
no
Nicholas Wilson
Wait, I just noticed that the ARM Cortex A7 which isn't considered vulnerable isn't fully superscalar (one of the areas it's lacking in is load/store) while the ARM Cortex A8 which is vulnerable is superscalar. It would seem to me that the issue is that any processor with branch prediction that is superscalar (at least in all the areas needed) could have the offending memory read instruction as the predicted next instruction after a potential branch and therefore potentially execute it at the same time as the branch instruction.

help win 7 laptop with ivy bridge i5-3320m here not quite sure which are the proper updates
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/* grep: /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/*: No such file or directory I'm invulnerable

inb4 performance crippled even more by the new patches (that don't even exist yet)
Angel Diaz
yes.
Leo Reed
that's why they'll delay it until people start throwing shit at them

The original P5 Pentium had branch prediction, and the Pentium Pro had speculative execution and out of order execution so of course anything after that will be vulnerable. Also, quit flooding the thread with your deleted posts.
Colton Kelly
why are you so entitled to security? srs question. people should just accept that security is a ridiculous concept, antithetical to the nature of the universe and just cope with it. build a transparent society where we don't need passwords because we're all under surveillance.

I use a bootlegged version of windows, what does this mean for me?
Got this nagging feelings all these vulnerabilities are only known to push Windows 10 and future "safe" CPUs.
Camden Allen
There has never been a society with as little privacy as what I'm advancing, so these articles are all speculative bullshit.
