Intel Performance Hit 5x Harder Than AMD After Spectre, Meltdown Patches – Slashdot
While the impacts vary tremendously from virtually nothing to significant on an application-by-application level…. the overall performance impact to 20 percent (for the 7980XE), 24.8 percent (8700K) and 20.5 percent (6800K).
…AMD loses ~3 percent with all fixes enabled.
I’m glad I’ve been sticking to AMD!
