Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Goodness. Soo get this: good 13900K CPUs get up binned to 13900KS CPUs, the best of which have recently turned into 14900K CPUs, making the latest flagship an up-bin of an up-bin. And all you're paying for with each up-bin is 100-200MHz at similar voltages, no guarantee of IMC which is still all over the place and for all you know, an i5 may run DDR5 better than your up-binned up-bin. And now you're telling me there's even more up-binning to the 14900KS?? Making this, what? An up-bin, of an up-bin, of an up-bin, of an up-bin?? Amazing!!
And then now they’ll claim “and we kept the same socket for the 13th and 14th gen” when it’s really the same generation.
