    Give it up Intel and admit you messed up.

    Great, fast chip! When it works. So far the only major issue I'm having with this chip is every time I boot up the computer it has to crash once, then it boots up fine. Every time. I have gotten in the habit of turning the power on and walking away for a few minutes to give it time to crash and then reboot, generally happens within 30 seconds to a minute. Once that's done it runs all my games with my 4070 super with no problems. Once Intel admits they screwed up and recall these and give us chips that aren't borked then I will rate this higher. Until then, buy AMD.

    Was not impressed at all, stopped working properly after 40 days. This combined with the GeForce 4060 TI 16gb, did well for the first week, then was getting 25FPS! now I upgraded my rig and motherboard used is ASUS TUF Z790-Pro. It also ran very hot and I was using ICUE H150I. I switched back to my I5 13400F and got 80 - 100FPS on AAA games.. I'm not an expert but I've been building my own rigs for 15years. Honestly feel it was a bad CPU.. which I'm out $400. Good luck..
