+QEMU also provide virtual CPU types, compatible with both Intel and AMD host
+CPUs.
 
-NOTE: To keep best compatibility, no security flag for spectre/meltdown/... exist in qemu virtual types, so you need to do it manually
+NOTE: To mitigate the Spectre vulnerability for virtual CPU types, you need to
+add the relevant CPU flags, see
+xref:qm_meltdown_spectre[Meltdown / Spectre related CPU flags].
 
-Historically, Proxmox had the kvm64 cpu model, with only pentium4 cpu flags enabled, so performance was not great for some workload.
