I assume that a new generation of CPUs is now on the market (or will be soon) that is safe again without bios, microcode fixes or patches and does not lose any performance. I have little to do with it myself, so I only have a superficial knowledge. If I wanted to build a new PC, the CPU (in hardware) would have to be "bug-free" as far as known. I would not buy hardware that is only secure with some performance-reducing patches if I could avoid it. (Sorry if I don't bring myself up to the level of a security expert for a community contribution. E. may someone from Digitec write something about it. Which new CPU's are corrected in hardware, if any?
