AMD says their CPU are near zero risk. But there some security issues found in the AMD fTMP recently. Why?

How much performance will affect ryzen and other chips.
 
Big issue right now is meltdown and all the patches are for meltdown. AMD chips are not concerned with meltdown issue because it is a design flaw of the architecture that is related to other design.

It is not known if it is because of AMD superior security engineering, or if because Intel purposely ignored the issue to kept a performance edge. One thing for sure, we are looking at a roadmap of 3-5 years before chips fully protect from the exploit. I have a hard time believing that Intel didn't knew about it for a long time. These guys are all Ph.Ds and know more about silicon than mostly anyone in the world. Intel even bought McAffe for alleged security improvement.

After Windows Patch to partially fix cpu bug
People saying losing fps on games almost near margin or near zero)

That`s not true.

Some games lost few fps
while some lost more than few fps.

I actually want some compensation back after they knew about it for many years and stills sells on the stores.

For AMD
They denying everything, someone probably going sue them soon.
