You don't have to inflict intentional injury to be liable for something like this. Intel's customers aren't getting what they paid for, so it seems pretty reasonable for the company to compensate them.

If you bought a car that was advertised as having 300 horsepower, and then the manufacturer realized it was unsafe unless they made a software change limiting the horsepower to 200, wouldn't you expect some compensation?
