@TerryLaze is a CPU a motherboard?

Is a CPU a graphics card?

Is a power connector on a graphics card the same as a CPU or motherboard?

You are fighting over wording specifically discussing the subject of the post and are merely obfuscating things to argue, at this point.

All 65w+ 13th and 14th gen suffer from the degradation issues. It's why I am still on a 12700k.
No they don't, they all have the bios bug if you didn't upgrade the bios already, but having the bug with a mobo that is giving a max of 1.1volt will bring it up to what ?! let's be crazy and say 1.2V ,the CPU will still be fine and never degrade.

If you have a mobo that pushes 1.5V from the getgo then you will probably suffer degradation, but 1.5V only happens with the very high end k CPUs in overclocker mobos.

Ok, maybe I didn't understand your initial post.
Please explain to me what you personally mean when you say "design issue" .

I am not playing your game anymore. If you didn't get it, that would be fine. I don't suspect that you didn't get it, I suspect you are just looking to entertain yourself at others expense and to be difficult as stated above.

Have a good day.

They all suffered from it.

Also, jayztwocent's personal 14900k, that he ran undervolted, degraded too. In the video he discussed it, he mentioned Intel was releasing another "fix". The problem has not been solved.

So, to be clear, the thing that @punkncat said to which you objected was:
(Disclaimer- This CPU is known to burn itself up due to design issues. Your mileage may vary.)
to which you replied:
Just for completeness sake, so do ryzen CPUs and so do nvidia GPUs....

"This CPU is known to burn itself up due to design issues." This means "design issues with the CPU."

Given the sentence structure, and how English works, it is not necessary to explicitly say "This CPU is known to burn itself up due to design issues with the CPU." In fact, it's kind of clumsy and awkward to say that.

Your response, however, was a distinct choice to redefine it as "any design issues with any associated component outside of the CPU itself." But, that is not what that sentence means.
