So what exactly causes the issue?
wooden marten
Defective batch of chips?
wary fjord
ow next month
wooden marten
Or the entire architecture is flawed
wary fjord
Defective batch of chips?
theres something inside the chips
that wears out overtime
and intel doesnt know what
xD
because the reports they got is very repetitive
it slows down or crash or die in few months
wooden marten
Probably capacitors
wary fjord
so yeah they just discontinue it
wooden marten
Those usually get cheaped out on
wary fjord
i mean 14900k is like 13900k anyway
but higher price a bit
sad it got discontinued
this how crazy this is

thats a huge loss and reputation for that shop

it mostly happen on their high end chips so lower one are safe
wooden marten

like i9 stuff

from prebuilt companies
i dont think so unless they dint assist for replacement
aslong u did ur part as a merchant

rancid juniper
prebuilts would go for the lower ends
im thinking i3s like 12100
or maybe some cheap i5s
wooden marten
Theres still plenty with 14th gen cpus
rancid juniper
unless yall talking about higher end prebuilt gaming pcs
wary fjord
yeah high end one
rancid juniper
sucks because the people who bought it may not know how to fix on their own
rancid juniper
i find i9 cpus as a joke

Here works, or go to #cpus-mobo-and-memory
What's your problem? Like, one stick not working but other works?
I'd try swapping around ram slots to see if it's the sticks that are problematic or the slot itself

I’ve had these BSOD errors:
-
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
-
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
-
Ntfs.sys
I notice my PC gets rather sluggish/will crash (most often at this time) when it was left idling.
Or, if I’m playing Fortnite and want to check the song, I will press my windows button to exit full-screen and go to Spotify to change the song or opening another window to do something else … I will sometimes get a “verification error” which sometimes causes my game to crash… or sometimes doesn’t and I’ll play for a little while longer (then it may crash)

It can be either ram, storage or windows itself that's broken
flint surge
why my laptop wont connect the graphics card to my extenal monitor
it's soo annoying to get 13 fps in fortnite
elfin mural
It depends on the laptop
flint surge
and 20 fps in 100mods + shaders minecraft

Some laptops directly connect external outputs to the igpu
mine
i can't switch that?

Might want to try other ports on it if there's any

It can be either ram, storage or windows itself that's broken
RAM seems most likely to me considering I don’t have filing issues outside of that? And my windows has been updated regularly without issue.
Not that I’m trying to be narrow-minded about it, but it does fit the description of RAM
flint surge
Might want to try other ports on it if there's any
my only port that can cast to a external monitor is the 1 hdmi port i have

undone matrix
I left 1 stick in and when I got home from work today, I noticed my PC was fine even with idling all day and played fine.
So now I’m trying the other stick, using the port from before. Maybe it’s port issue.
I bought it from Newegg so I’m hoping it isn’t bad on the warranty to try this myself.
But I will try sfc
