The best overall description of the issues that will probably sink Intel below AMD's current market cap.

There it is, ladies. 10 full years of Intel cpu's taking a minor to massive performance hit.
Not one AMD CPU affected.
Question on Coffee Lake/X? Newest gen. Normal process of tapeout to production is around 6 months, design probably 6 more months before that. So if newest coffee lake is NOT affected, than how long ago did Intel know about this issue? IF it is affected, then boom goes the dynamite.
How low is Intel going to have to drop prices to price point as competitive to same speed AMD?
As one YouTuber described the difference in gaming being about the same 30-40% speed difference that is about to be hit by this bug, his recommendation for Intel as top gaming CPU will have to be reconsidered.
As will how many reviews/performance chart's etc?
How many Ryzen sales for gaming use are about to happen ...
As of this FRIDAY!!!!
Pucker up, you thought the dram shortage was uncomfortable and the GPU situation intolerable?
Yet another reason I was glad to get out of machine level coding before 1992. I hate chipset changes like most of you could never know not ever having to wait for 16 boxes of punch cards to load, to find the 1 that is out of order.
