Intel’s Statement: Core 13th/14th Gen CPUs Unstable due to Microcode, Patch in the Works

Previously, there were reports of instability issues with Intel’s Core 13th/14th Gen CPUs (Raptor Lake series). Various theories have suggested the root cause of these issues.

Recently, Intel officially acknowledged that certain CPUs within the Core 13th/14th Gen lineup indeed have stability issues, stemming from excessively high operating voltages in some cases. The underlying cause is attributed to flaws in the microcode algorithms within the CPU, leading to incorrect voltage settings.

Intel has stated that they will address this issue by releasing a patch to rectify the microcode, set to be rolled out in mid-August.
