No that wasn't the problem. Intel was providing too much voltage internally on boost and it is damaging the CPUs. They decreased the voltage but then a bunch of already damaged CPUs are marginal so now they are boosting other voltages to bring them to stability and the consequence is a reduction in the boost clock speeds. The patches will keep coming as these CPUs degrade more rapidly, they are all going to die young its just a question of when and whether Intel will be on the hook for it or not. |
