An Intel representative confirmed that boxed versions of 13th and 14th generation Core processors are now sold with an extended five-year warranty, and the warranty for already sold units is extended by two years. Intel itself announced this the other day.
An Intel representative also made a very important statement: the microcode update that will be released soon to fix the unstable operation of Raptor Lake chips will not affect turbo frequency values and will retain the ability to manually overclock K-series models.

An Intel representative also said that the new generation of Arrow Lake processors will retain high clock speeds, but their power consumption will decrease by at least 100 watts. The updated technological process will help to avoid problems with high voltage – the chips will work stably. The company has not yet disclosed the performance indicators of Arrow Lake processors, but they are expected to be impressive. Finally, Intel intends to release new video cards of the Battlemage family by the end of this year, the performance of which will increase significantly compared to existing models.
The Raptor Lake microcode update will be released in mid-August, and the Arrow Lake series processors will likely be unveiled at the Intel Innovation event in September.
