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.

that was becuase a lot of motherboards shipped with only 16mb rom chips for the bios, and at the time that was not enough to enable support of all am4 processors. To counter this many vendors released upgraded versions of existing motherboards with 32mb of rom for the bios.
I believe amd was eventually able to work around this, but there was a technical hurdle in this case. People did need to rake them over the coals for it tho.
