  • Skylake X (Basin Falls)

Yes. This kb installed twice on here. I use InSpectre to disable the microcode at my discretion and it's been disabled for the past three weeks. I noticed CompatTelRunner a few times in task manager--not sure if it was for v. 1809 readiness or some other reason. Hmmm.

Superficially, my Skylake i7 doesn't seem affected with the microcode enabled. Perhaps it'll stay enabled at some point, if only to keep that kb from reinstalling yet again in the future.
