Nuked Hello my fellow tech enthusiasts! Today, we have some interesting news regarding the recent complaints about crashing 13th and 14th Gen Intel CPUs.
Alderon Games, the developer behind the dinosaur MMO Path of Titans, has made the decision to swap out its Intel-based servers for AMD due to significant instability issues. Founder Matthew Cassells shared in a blog post that they have experienced thousands of crashes and have seen CPUs corrupt SSDs and memory.
On the flip side, RAD Game Tools, a maker of Unreal Engine decompression tools, mentions that only a small fraction of the processors are affected. This conflicting information adds another layer to the ongoing investigation into the cause of these crashes.
Intel has previously pointed to improper overclocking settings on motherboards as a potential cause of crashes on home computers using these CPUs. However, Level1Techs highlights that this explanation doesn’t hold up for server hardware, which should be set more conservatively.
Warframe developers have also reported issues with driver failures in 13th and 14th Gen Intel processors. While some stability improvements have been seen with BIOS updates, Intel maintains that the root cause of the problem is still under investigation.
It’s certainly a complex situation with varying perspectives and solutions being proposed. As technology enthusiasts, it’s important for us to stay informed and adapt to changes in the industry. Let’s continue to follow this story and see how it unfolds! Stay tuned for more updates.
