Complaints about crashing 13th, 14th Gen Intel CPUs now have data to back them up

Alderon Games, the shaper of dinosaur MMO Path of Titans, says it's swapping retired its Intel 13th and 14th Gen-based servers for AMD and urges others hosting the game’s servers to bash the same. The developer has had “significant” instability issues that nary of the fixes truthful acold person reversed, wrote Alderon laminitis Matthew Cassells successful a blog station past week.

Cassells wrote that Alderon has recorded “thousands of crashes” connected gamers’ CPUs utilizing its clang reporting tools and says the processors tin besides corrupt SSDs and memory. He added that successful his team’s experience, 100 percent of the affected CPUs “deteriorate implicit time, yet failing.” On the contrary, Unreal Engine decompression instrumentality shaper RAD Game Tools, which Cassells cites successful the blog, says that “only a tiny fraction” of the processors are affected.

Suggestions that Intel’s i9-13900K and i9-14900K CPUs are corrupting retention and representation and causing servers utilizing them to clang is simply a caller crook successful this saga, which started successful April with the institution investigating crippled crashes connected location computers utilizing the chips. Motherboards with improper overclocking settings were cited by Intel arsenic an evident culprit astatine 1 time, but as Level1Techs points retired successful the supra video, that doesn’t relationship for crashes seen connected server hardware, which should beryllium acceptable much conservatively.

Earlier successful the week, a Warframe developer wrote connected the game’s forums that “almost all” of the crashes it recorded came from operator failures successful 13th- and 14th-Gen Intel processors. He did enactment that failures seen connected a unit member’s gaming rig stopped aft helium installed a caller BIOS update, adjacent though Intel said successful June that the occupation it addresses isn’t the basal origin of instability.
