Don't forget the potential oxidation issues.
There's probably a huge story behind why Intel replaced their fab chief just days after it was revealed that he okayed sending out oxidized chips.
Yeah /u/deadbeef@lemmy.nz kind of understated the problem. They were seeing insane failure rates in data centers like 50%. At this point, any 13th or 14th gen CPU that has experienced any crash or instability should be considered faulty unless you know the cause of the crash is from something else. This isn't just me saying this, mainstream outlets like Gamers Nexus are saying it.
If you're a consumer and have one of those CPUs a replacement is probably in your future. And I wonder if Intel even has stock to replace that many at once....
I can't think of anything like this ever happening on this scale before in computing history.
