Summary: "Earlier this week when news was still emerging on the "Intel

CPU bug" now known as Spectre and Meltdown I ran some Radeon gaming

tests with the preliminary Linux kernel patches providing Kernel Page

Table Isolation (KPTI) support. Contrary to the hysteria, the gaming

performance was minimally impacted with those open-source Radeon driver

tests while today are some tests using the latest NVIDIA driver paired

with a KPTI-enabled kernel."
