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.

The current intel platforms are more mature and more likely to work out of the box.
The AMD platforms provide stronger raw performance and a much better future upgrade path but with more potential for system instability and very slow boot times.
So just go with whichever you think will be more important to you.
People have no clue how horrible it feels to wait for more than 1 minute for your pc to POST. Its either it will eventually POST or the memory need to be re-train again for about 3-4 minutes.
