I heard the recent news about intel's failure rate

[Joshua the Writer]

I have watched a few tech news channels talking about how the recent two Intel generations have had a dramatic failure rate increase. I am not sure if I understood the cause explanation right, but apparently it has to do with cores or lanes or something shorting out due to a faulty circuit controller kinda thing.

And also, Intel knew this info for a while but just now decided to take action and make a statement recently.

I already decided that my next computer will be another Ryzen-based system because AMD has a better cost to power ratio than Intel. Intel is pretty worthless to me at this point. I really don't like their incompetence.

It's why I chose to build my latest computer with a 12th generation Intel cpu. No problems, no bios update required.

I think they've taken Lithography as far as it can go without investing in a whole new level of technology. Lithography was my trade - printing. 7 nanometres is pretty bloody small. 7 millionths of a millimetre.

One of the things I'm still confused about is whether or not Asus was exacerbating this issue through the use of elevated voltages on their motherboards. Increased performance for gamers that comes at a cost.

Even more so, their aggressive, anti-consumer practices relative to Return Merchandise Authorizations, along with precise instructions that might solve problems, but at the expense of voiding their own warranties. Asus trying to have their cake and eat it to, resulting in a consumer revolt and presumed drop in sales. Not cool.

With YouTubers like Gamers Nexus and Jayz Two Cents advising their audience to stay away from Asus motherboards altogether. Particularly bad news when combined with 13th and 14th gen Intel cpus.

One thing for sure, with or without such problems, you always have to be focused on thermodynamic concerns when it comes to computers. Though that said, it continues to interest me relative to Apple's proprietary "M series" cpus. Particularly their upcoming M4 chip, with more power and less cooling requirements. And whether or not Apple is being straight with the public over such alleged performance.

Knowing apple, they're lying just because the people who buy apple don't know any better.

I only know that there has been some debate over their thermodynamic claims pertaining to the M2 and M3 cpus. Now comes their M4 cpu. More power and even better cooling? Hmmmm.

Might pay to remember that Apple don't do any of their own research and development. They rely solely on Intel for that. Hence the naming convention - iMac, iPad, iPhone, etc.

Intel's having problems with 13th and 14th generation cpus.
Mac is having problems with M3 and M4 cpus.

Hhmmm.....
