Intel solves several problems with MDS vulnerabilities (Microarchitectural Data Sampling or Microarchitectural Data Sampling) . Despite this, it still recommends disabling hyperthreading (multithreading) of processors with older 'Coffe Lake' architectures .

California Microtechnology Company Shows Benchmarks Before and After MDS Vulnerabilities

Intel processors

On more secure architectures like 'Coffe Lake', Intel expects there to be minimal impact after patching and they see no relevant negative impact when disabling multithreading. This may be because the new 8th and 9th generation processors have a considerably larger number of cores.

The brand has offered a series of benchmarks of different processors that are widely used by users and companies. In the user section we can see that the Intel i9-9900k after the patches and the deactivation of the multithreading has practically the same performance, which is good news for the blue team. Intel shows us the change after the patches in SYSMark 2014 SE , WebXprt 3 , SPECInt Rate Base and 3DMark "Skydiver" with integrated UHD 630 graphics .

Here we can see the performance differences before and after fixes and, after applying the processors, with and without multithreading.

On the results, we see that the performance is very even, being 8% and 9% worse in SYSMark 2014 SE and SPECInt Rate Base, respectively. On the other hand, in 3DMark there are hardly any differences. This is because some tests take advantage of multithreading, which have the greatest differences, while those that do not, return similar results in any case.

In the companies section, Itel has shared with us the same results on Xeon processors after 2017. The tests have been carried out on different platforms where we can see similar results. In this case, disabling multithreading slightly affects overall performance.

In recent years, Intel has been suffering from various internal architectural flaws, so it is likely that it has lost the trust of many users. Meanwhile, AMD is about to roll out its next generation of processors, and the leaks only herald danger to the Californian company.

Do you still have confidence in Intel? Do you think AMD will resume the fight?
