The article seems to have misunderstood the stats that he provided.

He was showing crashes of a single component of Nvidia drivers while running Warframe. Any crashes within Warframe proper aren't included.

It still demonstrates that a CPU flaw is causing stability issues in areas that are rock-solid for everyone else.

For what it's worth, I've had issues with many different games crashing when running my 14th gen i9 at factory clock rates, and all of them manifested as video driver/shader faults during the crash or blue screen. Running it at 90% of rated speed, all those mysterious GPU issues went away.
