The developers of Black Myth: Wukong have warned Intel PC users that they may face error messages, instability, and crashes. In a pinned topic on the Steam Community message boards, they say that 'Out of video memory' issues may affect users of systems packing Intel Core 13th and 14th gen CPUs and provide some workarounds.

I wonder if this game can be used as a canary to showcase which cpus have been degraded already?

My system crash with 42fps max.

What are the specs of your system?

42 fps MAX? Goodness, what is your average fps?
This is crashing on a 'T' (35W nominal TDP) Raptor Lake i5?

 

[Amdlova]

The T series don't have any problem with high voltages max voltage I have see is 1.3v on the single thread operations average 1.2v all cores turbo at 92w intel specs. These cpu have max power draw of 103w they are 5% slower than the 65w cpus on average.

I wonder how much of the crashing is from the motherboard LLC stock undervolt settings where high load is often met with inadequate volts?
Buildzood has been going in depth discussing the two separate issues of instability and degradation.

That's what I thought but it might actually just be a matter of lower-TDP processors taking longer to show this problem. We may not know for a long time, eh?

A 13600T from early production might have the via oxidation issue.
No way to tell because intel isn’t providing the affected serial numbers

Intel did say that any 65 watt processor could be affected by the voltage problem
It’s just a lot more common on the k series.
The voltage spikes are short enough that monitoring software might not show the actual peak voltages
