I feel lucky too. I have a 14900k that’s stable. I did have some minor stability issues after I built it, but dialing back the motherboard’s idiotic default settings plus a few BIOS updates cleared that up. With that said, if I had to do over, I’d build an AMD system. One of the big reasons I built Intel is that historically my Intel builds have been much more stable and less problematic than my AMD builds.
Comment on Intel denies RMA requests for its faulty 13th Gen, 14th Gen CPUs with instability issues

I must have won the silicon lottery because I’ve had no issues with my 13900K

I’ve been running a 5950X since 2020 with nary a hiccup, fwiw. My system before that was an old 2600K that I was just far to lazy to upgrade for a very long time lol

The 2500k/2600k was such a good processor. My favorite Intel build I’ve done had a 2500k I overclocked to 4.8GHz back when bitcoin was $10.

I used my 5900x for over 3 years without a hiccup (months of uptime) when suddenly an update completely wrecked my idle stable. I think I figured it out, but yeah a happy AMD customer with the occasional “Why isn’t shit stable out of the box”
Now Intel… Hahahaha guys I think you got screwed :/ time to lawyer up.

I thought I lose the silicon lottery, my 13900KS can’t be underclocked at all or it will BSOD. Now I suppose I’m lucky it work fine at stock settings.
