Even Franken Boards with Alder lake processors will hold the value... and I was about to buy a system with a 13900K frankenboard... went with the 1280P to test it. I've avoided a tactical nuke...I see Rator Lake CPUs on Marketplace and every time - and forever - hard pass. They have zero secondary value to me and likely many.
A couple people that I know who also “know” but still want Intel for reasons went with that 12900k bundle at MC which is “fine.”
I think in the coming years there will be folks searching out 12th gen CPUs when they have instability with their 13/14th gen systems and the 12900k is going to hold its value like the 4790k, 9900K and other top end for the socket Intel CPUs which shouldn’t have happened. It should be like the 8700k, which held OK but isn’t the king.
That article wasn't so much about desktop sales as it was laptops, e.g. nobody wants to buy Meteor Lake and Lunar Lake because they cost too much for what you get. Intel stuffed the channel with 10nm junk at firesale prices and people are sticking to that wherever possible.This is really funny. People simply don't want to pay more. So AM4 and LGA1700 will keep selling at current prices.

They haven't suffered at least in the UAE. Judging by many of the posts on overclock.net, people are still hugging their 14900K PCs because "it offers the lowest possible RAM latency" and "fewest stutters" in a broad range of games (their justifications) and they bemoan that reviewers select "AMD leaning" game titles for benchmarking. They admit that there are degradation problems but they have taken steps in their BIOS to prevent that (the electrical settings etc. and what not).
I just haven't heard in normal conversations or seen anything in the local news media to suggest that Intel's reputation has been damaged. They seem to be doing OK, in the minds of people who don't really care about CPUs and tend to be more "laptop brand" loyal than CPU manufacturer loyal.

Arrow Lake is sad trombone noises.

Microcode update 0x12F rectifies rare circumstances where Vmin shift can still occur
Lol I was gonna post it looks like capacity constrained is due to RPL(replacement) on Intel 7New 0x12F microcode for Raptor Lake: https://community.intel.com/t5/Proc...-Vmin-Shift-Instabilty-Update-New/m-p/1686948
HWINFO also There is reg query for it you can find online if you search for itWhere would I look in my Dell XPS 8960 for the existing installed 'micro code"??
