That is factually wrong. In best case, your CPU did not show you any errors in given tasks that you can suspect is caused by degradation. You did no observation of the degradation itself. Even more, besides being factual wrong, that statement...
Yes you do if you are to make claim your CPU have no degradation. The others observe a point of failure and it points to a degradation to be the cause of that failure. That is a whole different chapter. Even here, the CPU have been stable for...
Moving the goalpost much? My claim is that you cannot claim that you have no degradation or no extra degradation due to overclock without any specialized tools to observe that. And I dont claim electron migration can be a problem during the...
A bit simplified, but this we can agree upon. Temps and current needs especially to be in check to avoid problems from electron migration. Outside edge cases, it should not be a problem during the lifetime of the CPU if run within acceptable...
Yes you do. "Observable degradation" without any tools to do the observation of what degrades are words you should not utter. You cannot look at a CPU from the outside and state that you have "observed" there has been no degradation like electron...
I hear that. Not been much of a laptop gamer myself, but was surprised by a work/gaming combo midrange laptop I bought. 16" 240hz IPS gsync screen with 500nits+, I7-13700HX/RTX 4070 gpu (Lenovo Legion Pro 5i). A bit noisy in performance profile...
Sadly this sort of crap will go on for years while Intel tries to pass the buck onto the AIBs and they say no, customers are stuck in a legal limbo while neither party wants to take the responsibility.
Intel will say the AIB’s are at fault for...
How do you know? CPUs degrade over time regardless of OC or not. You need pretty specialized equipment if to measure additional degradation done by OC. Did you do that? Or are you simply saying you did not have a chip fail due to OC while you...
I dont believe this is the issue here. Nothing to suggest there is something wrong with the design of those CPUs that make them fail at shader compilation. People run them without any issues. Those that had issues, had increasing failure rate and...
I would follow their advice. Performance degradation on CPU is common due to electron migration (any overclocker site have had those discussions when it comes to OC and how long the CPU can last), which many suspect this is. You have a CPU that...
Settings applied likely weren't actually stock if motherboard was the one making the decision. Motherboard makers load their own "optimized defaults", which aren't Intel defaults and aren't safe. It is hard to say whether CPU is defective or not...
Guy in the lunchroom was watching the series on his phone in his mid 50s with the speaker on. Some girl asked what he was watching and said it was Fallout.
I'm sure this is news that'll make a lot of people here happy. Anyone? No one? Anyway, Linux has for the first time hit 4% market share world wide. We're not including ChromeOS which is at 2.26%, and Unknown which is at 6.11%, cause we don't...
