None of this is based in any fact, but it’s a very interesting view
Oooo, federal suit as well, that’s not good for them![]()
Intel faces lawsuit over Raptor Lake voltage issues
Failure to warn customers about chip flaw leads to fraud claimwww.theregister.com
You've understood it correctly. And it's more than just a smidge.As I am looking at getting a new PC, this thread seemed like a rather important read. After going through it all, it seems that people are, on the whole, in general, somewhat ambiguously leaning ever so slightly, just a smidge, almost imperceptibly away from INTEL right now, in favour of AMD.
I think I've understood that correctly anyway.
Thank you for the all the research/info you guys have put into this, it really helps idiots like me that don't understand the technical side of PC components.
I'm saying no...Habemus Stability?

Raptor Lake instability saga continues as Intel releases 0x12F update to fix Vmin instability
Microcode update 0x12F rectifies rare circumstances where Vmin shift can still occurwww.tomshardware.com
That was earlier than I envisioned, thought it would be September we'd start getting new reports of the replacement batch failingHabemus Stability?

Just in time for a 9950X3D buildJayz 14900K just died on his personal rig, he always had manual voltages set and it could never reach into even what the Microcode update limited to. It was also on a custom loop so temps would have been as optimal as possible.
He's rebuilding on Ryzen
Its blatantly an architectural flaw, voltages and temps will just accelerate if higher
Ouch, that's disgustingJay just had another 14th Gen burn out, this time a 14900KS and he'd only used it a few times, 10 runs in Port Royal to be exact!
I thought he just suspected that might be the case. He's not been pushing that hard for very long - if it has tanked then it must be a record for the shortest failure time from new.Jay just had another 14th Gen burn out, this time a 14900KS and he'd only used it a few times, 10 runs in Port Royal to be exact!
The KS models were failing really early generally, Intel clocked them back 300MHz on the boost clocks to try and stop it but it didn’t.I thought he just suspected that might be the case.

It is also one of the early signs of the CPU failing, starts sporadically with a 00 boot issue which sorts itself once the silicon has had time to cool back to it's "correct shape", then when it is running you start to get BSODs, eventually it will just fail to boot at all when the silicon structure has degraded enough that it's literally turned to glass.Well, that 140000KS isn't dead after all. The problem was water splashed on the motherboard.
