I-Intel iyaqhubeka nobubi bayo futhi kubonakala sengathi okubi kakhulu akukakafiki ...

I-Intel yileyonkampani ehlangana noMicrosoft yenza umfelandawonye a la que muchos se refieren como Wintel para dominar el sector de los PCs. Y lo consiguieron, como es evidente, pero últimamente está de vacas flacas. No parece levantar cabeza y lo peor aún no ha llegado. Todo comenzó cuando salieron a la luz las primeras vulnerabilidades de sus chips, como Meltdown y Spectre. Pero eso solo fue el comienzo…

Isithombe senkampani kanye ukwethenjwa kwabalingani bayo abaningiIkakhulu labo abasebenzisa ama-Xeon chips abo kumaseva naku-HPC bebengajabule neze ngalezi zinkinga zokuphepha. Abangakwazi ukuthi kude nokuqeda ukungathembani, okwakwenziwe ukuqhubeka nokwakha ukungathembani okuningi ngesikhukhula sangempela sokukhubazeka okuthinta ama-chips abo. Zingaki esezikhona? Iqiniso ukuthi bengingazi nokuthi ngibala kanjani.

ILinus Torvalds uqobo wayenamagama anokhahlo kakhulu I-Intel, ithi bathengise ngokoqobo «shit«. Lapho isiphepho sobungozi sibonakala sidlula (yize ngezikhathi ezithile kuba nemvula entsha enobungozi obusha noma leyo etholakala kokudlule okutholakele ...), kwafika iphupho elibi le-AMD. Angazi ukuthi ngabe ubuyazi yini i-CES 2020, kepha i-Intel ayikaze yethule noma yini ethakazelisa, noma incane kakhulu kulokho ejwayele ukukwenza. Esikhundleni salokho, i-AMD izimboze ngenkazimulo ngamanoveli ayo. Ngubani ongakusho eminyakeni embalwa eyedlule? Akekho owayengakucabanga, ngisho nomlandeli we-AMD owaziwa kakhulu emaphusheni abo amahle kakhulu.

Ukuma ngezinkinga abanazo nge-10nm yabo akusizi nakho, futhi njalo lapho bekhulula ama-chip ane-TPD ephezulu naphezulu. Bazohamba kude kangakanani ngokungalungisi? 300W, 600W, ... Bazothengisa ngokoqobo izitofu zokumelana ezingasebenzi nhlobo. Ibhizinisi elibi! Mhlawumbe labo abagxeka i-AMD, ngokuchitha amafektri ayo (i-GlobalFoundries) nokuziguqula ibe yintambo engenalutho, manje kufanele bathule. Kubukeka sengathi bekungewona umqondo omubi, okukunikeza inkululeko yokukhetha ama-foundries ngokuya ngentshisekelo yakho, nokuthola i-7nm kusuka ku-TSMC ekusebenzela.

Okuningi Kwenziwe ngobuthaka be-Intel

Lokho kusho, kufanele ngingeze ukuthi hhayi ama-CPU akho kuphela anokukhubazeka, kepha ezinye izinhlelo nazo ziyahola. Akukho okusha! Ngokuqinisekile uzokhumbula okwenzekile nge-Intel ME. Futhi manje sekuyimikhiqizo yabo yokuqhafaza, kokubili kweWindows neLinux, nabanye Ukuba sengozini kwe-6, enye yazo ingozi enkulu. Ezinye zisengozini ephansi, kanti ezine zengozi ephakathi.

I-Intel isheshe yabakhiphela ama-patches, kepha amasistimu athintekile avezwe isikhashana. Ngaphezu kwalokho, labo abangakasitholi isichibi bazohlala besengozini. Uma unesifiso sokwazi yiziphi izinhlelo ezithintekayoYebo, kuzoba ne-3rd Gen Intel Core kuze kufike ku-10th Gen, okungukuthi, nabakhona njengamanje. Ku-HPC, umndeni we-Intel Xeon E3 v2 kuya ku-v6, ne-E-2100 ne-2-2000 bayathinteka. Futhi uchungechunge lwe-Intel Atom A, E, X ne-Z, kanye nezinhlobo ezahlukahlukene zeCeleron.

I-Intel igcizelele ukuthi bonke abasebenzisi abathintekile kufanele babuyekeze ngokuphuthumayo umshayeli wabo we-Intel Processor Graphics weWindows ne Umshayeli we-Linux i915. Kepha, inkampani iyaxwayisa ukuthi akukho kuncishiswa okugcwele kwamanye ama-chips. Ngakho-ke ngeke uphephe uma unamapulatifomu asuselwa ku-Ivy Bridge, Bay Trail naseHaswell.

Nokubeka eyodwa amahlaya kulokhu akuhlekisi: Yebo, okukodwa ohlwini... Njengoba beqhubeka kanjena, kuzofanele bangeze ezinye izinombolo ezinombolweni ze-CVE, ngoba bazoziqeda bodwa (Meltdown, Specter, Foreshadow-NG, L1TF, Spoiler,…).
