And here I thought, it would be good to go for Intel. Recently got a new PC with 14600KF. However, I have not had any issues with performance besides Deathloop (Launches, black screen and then dissapears).
EDIT: So I guess, I'm forced to wait until my motherboard developer/ company (MSI) announces that their users can update their BIOS manually? I'm curious whether, I'm actually affected by this or not. Though I guess, never gonna go Intel again. Next new PC will be having AMD (unless AMD makes such a mess as well, then it does not matter).
e.g. https://www.yahoo.com/tech/ryzen-3000-fix-sinkclose-vulnerability-183025768.html AMD has these sorts of flaws too, I don't know enough to tell if AMD is significantly better at this when deciding to buy
