Key Takeaways:

  1. If you or someone you know has had any system instability issues with their 13th or 14th gen Intel processor/CPU, GN recommends on immediately filing an RMA with Intel even if a previous one was rejected.
  2. If you’re an owner of a 13 or 14th gen, please update the BIOS as soon as you can and keep an eye out for newer microcode patches/AGESA updates from Intel coming in mid-late August 2024.
  3. Please continue to be informed/vigilant when buying second-hand/used Intel 13 and or 14th gen CPUs as you probably don’t want to buy a defective CPU.

    Nah the board is a few years old. I’d be taking a loss on the motherboard and cpu as they’re both out of the return window.

    Maybe I should just sell the entire pc.
