    It was theorized that ME could be a source for backdoors but we didn't know for sure that there was an exploit. Now we know.

  • My laptop doesn't have vPro or AMT, ISM, and SBT so I'm good, and I don't expose it directly to the publicly routeable internet either.

    Point is that pretty much only Ryzen does, which got released this year (and some low-end APUs). FX series (since 2011) does not.

    Running the game your nickname comes from, in 4K with dual GTX970, no issue or slowdown whatsoever. Although I don't play every latest graphics-heavy game (prefer MMO titles, and those don't have a ton of h/w requirements), but for example GTA5 also runs fine.
