    Glad I chose an AMD setup for my last overhaul. Sympathies for those affected or left to completely redo their rigs to avoid intel.

      Literally just paid for the final part for my LGA1700 rig… saved up for months. Fuck this shit.

      I’m running my i5 13600h until the computer can’t turn on anymore. I’m not made of fucking money.

    No offense, but Intel has been shit for a decade. Far too much power draw for marginal gains. Their whole schtick is terrible for the planet and comically anti-innovation. Why would anyone have an Intel processor? It’s totally irrational.

      which means if you’re impacted after a ton of paperwork and emails you’ll get a check for $200 6 years from now to make up for the fact that your $650 processor was a lemon. justice served!

        Sadly, this is the way. Good to see Intel giving AMD leg-up in the market though. Accidental MVPs are always interesting to see.
