Intel has just listed all its processors that are currently being affected by the Spectre and Meltdown security flaws. Moreover, Epic Games has shared a graph showcasing the significant performance impact of the Intel security fix on one of its gaming servers.
As Epic Games showcased, the CPU utilization of one of its gaming servers sky-rocketed from 25% to almost 60%. That?s a really big performance hit and it is something that may affect gamers worldwide. Weaker gaming servers may reach their peak due to this security fix, resulting in possible latency issues. So yeah, while the performance impact of this fix on a PC system may be relatively small for individual users, it can potentially lead to major gaming performance issues ? especially for online games like Fortnite or PlayerUnknown?s Battlegrounds ? caused by the gaming servers.
Here is the list of all the Intel processors that are currently being affected by Spectre and Meltdown.

เซิฟเวอร์เกมส์ ร้องกันแล้ว CPU สมรรถภาพ ทำงานหนักกว่าเดิมอย่างมาก
เมื่อ Epic Games เปิดตัวการใช้ CPU ของเซิร์ฟเวอร์เกมหนึ่งในนั้นพุ่งขึ้นจาก 25% เป็นเกือบ 60% นี่เป็นผลงานที่ยอดเยี่ยมจริงๆ
