.....it is stable enough. That why manufacturers had released microcode update for Sandy/Ivy bridge and Haswell based server CPU.

Did anyone encounter one thread maxed issue for Skylake/Kaby/Coffee?

Duh.....Spectre can only be fixed with software (kernel patch) and microcode together.

Good luck on waiting Microsoft to release microcode update for old hardware (even if you use windows 10).

Point I am trying to convey, your system security is broken/incomplete without the microcode update.

Plus I am just trying to know if this issue is common after applying spectre microcode update. hmm.gif

The loophole was made public recently, now all hackers got a new loophole which people are reluctant to fix to exploit.

Not yet available at windows update catalog.

Beside, Microsoft already stated one must manually install Windows microcode update patch (this is not the BIOS microcode update) manually from WUC. Currently, only Skylake,kaby and coffee's microcode available for windows 10 from WUC.
