Intel Core i9-13900K drops to all-time-low under $400 in Black Friday deal

considering its issues, and the very real possibility that these CPUs really may not be "fixed" despite the firmware updates, its still at least 50% too expensive

I agree I have never had an AMD since the Athlon XP and have always been an intel fan, but my friend is going through a nightmare with his intel i9 and his Asus hero board right now. Both failed cpu fried and Asus firmware wont update to fix the frying cpu issue and the replacement they sent him was broken too and they make you pay for shipping both times. I have two Hero boards and they are very expensive. I am skipping these and the next CPUs by intel. The new amd cpus blow them out of the water anyways. So they need to make some major changes. I dont know why anyone would want those 13,14 gen. I have the 11th right now luckily on my PC, but I do have a 12 in my HTPC I dont think it gets enough usage to break though.
