I wonder if this has anything to do with Intel's big snafu with gen 13/14 processors. If the solution was to push a microcode update cuts the voltage to the CPUs, it's basically a "stealth" nerf. Their spin doctors have been working overtime to frame this as erroneously high voltages that were being "fixed".
I'd really like to see this graph divided between Intel and AMD.
i used to put orange stealth nefs up my nose as a child
Did that speed things up for you?
no, and it cut down on the airflow to my processor
Did it stop coolant leak though?
