Now I'm confused or is this something completely different???

I just ran the Intel Detection Tool: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000025619/software.html

I got this back:

Processor Name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz
Status: This system is not vulnerable.

That one is old and nothing to do with Spectre, Meltdown and ETC. My system got the all clear on that test. Ages ago.
