Intel’s 13th and 14th generation Core processors have been plagued by relatively widespread stability issues, which Intel previously said would be addressed in an August BIOS update for motherboards. However, other sources say the issue they found is only half the story, but that’s not the point right now.
Dylan Brown, Unreal Engine Lead at ModelFarm, reported that the Intel Core i9-13900K and i9-14900K have a failure rate of almost 50%.
As a result, this VFX company is now switching to AMD Ryzen 9 9950X instead of unstable Intel “stones”. Previously, other studios like Alderon Games announced similar decisions, and the developers of Unreal Engine and the authors of Warframe reported on the problems themselves and their mass character.
