So I have a 3700x, I’ve read about the vulnerability but don’t fully understand it. How at risk am I?

If an attacker gets access to your system, they will be able to ensure you can’t get rid of their access
It will persist across operating system installs
However, this requires them to get access first

If they get root or admin they can hack the chip itself.
But minor exploits, nada, no issue, you good. Gotta get root to make it happen.
Problem is if you, as they say, get got, you have no way of knowing if they’re in your CPU, and no way to fix if they did – basically gotta trash it and replace.
