Meanwhile Userbenchmarks is like “A broken and defective, non-functioning Intel CPU is still better than a 7800X3D.”

I hope they can meet demand and that the prices do not skyrocket.

I was hanging out with friends this weekend & happen to mention issues with intel.
My friends had no clue, they all game but they’re not into knowing which cpu is better or whatnot.
This is the state of people who have bit of clue about specs & pc and have gaming pc’s.
I don’t think it’s gonna hurt intel as much as we think.

Intel fanboys argue that AMD is too unstable, and apart from that that’s a whole new MOBO they’ll have to get. So its more likely people on Intel will get a 12th gen, since the performance difference between 12, 13, 14. Isn’t that big for most users.

Swapping for sure. I have a 13700k and now I have to be constantly vigilant with an uneasy feeling that the CPU might fail any time. And I’m not even a gamer, I use it for work. So if it fails it will cost me more than just replacing it.

I’m really waiting to see how userbenchmark will try to spin this whole disaster

People seem to be forgetting that this isnt a good thing for anybody. AMD is not your friend either. If the only competition produces CPUs that break after 1 month, AMD has free rein to do pretty much whatever it pleases such as hiking up prices

Unfortunately, the average person will just think that their “Intel CPU was designed to break fast, as everything is nowadays”, will buy a new one, and will never search what really happened.

We live in a weird era where I have an AMD CPU and Intel GPU (and am happy with both)!

I wish this whole “having an allegiance” to a company would die out.
Just buy whatever is best in the performance/your budget bracket.
And avoid 13th/14h gen like the plague.

Yeah… Refusing to recall or reimburse customers for a hardware defect kinda does that. Intel deserve their downfall.

The number of z790/690 boards that went up in the last week for sale is insane.

I’ve own an AMD a few years ago. I hate fans for both sides. Fun to see them reveal their true colors. Laughing at us while we wonder if this system is going to fail. I hope mine doesn’t as well as other 13th and 14th gen users who bought their chips a year ago. But I sure ain’t getting another 13th or 14th series ever again. And possibly never for the 15th, or whatever it is going to be. F AMD asshats. lol
