Static linking and MKL kernels for different processors types

So..

There are two types of linking MKL libraries: dynamic and static. When MKL linked dynamically it works perfectly on different types of processors at the expense of dynamically selecting needed kernel depending on current CPU.

And what about static linking? Can this DLL/EXE ensure best performance on different CPU types such as dynamically linking and selecting method or it works perfectly only on current CPU?

we can say the same regarding the static linking: static linking provides the best performance on different types of CPU.
