    BAD CPUs and BAD RETURN POLICY

    Constantly crashing using Premiere Pro. My computer was fine until I upgraded CPU from a 12900. So much time and money lost. Now I find out Intel made bad chips. I go to return and find out Best Buy only has a 14 day return policy which is not enough time to troubleshoot and figure out that the CPU does not work.

    Best buy sold me a review unit that wouldn't work in a actual PC. Took over a month to find this information out from Intel's warranty program. Best buy refused to replace it because it was outside their 2 week return policy. I'm never shopping here again when Amazon has a 30 day returns for any reason.

    Intel Broke This

    It was great until Intel's voltage settings degraded it into oblivion. RMAing as we speak... The new BIOS fix is out but it won't fix your already damaged CPU.

    Not stable, can break your motherboard. Do NOT buy this. I patched my BIOs with the intel update to fix the instability issue and it still has issues.

    Update bios after installing!!!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was a little scared of getting this since i learned of the 13/14 gen debacle. After getting it for $315 instead of an AMD that was $450 I felt like i scored. I hope to try AMD next round if the prices are cheaper. Installed into a new mobo and immediately updated the gugabyte board to the newest bios and made sure the default intel speed was on. So far so good. Coming from an 11700k the speed is fasted and more responsive.

    Hot and Powerful!

    Very powerful CPU. Make sure you have a good cooling solution for this chip! I suggest getting a "contact frame" for this to help with cooling. Intel XTU will let you do undervolting, manual overclock, or AI overclock. I highly suggest using HWMonitor to watch your temps!
