Intel is being sued over the instability issues in its Raptor Lake CPUs
Did Intel know about the problems before release?
What just happened? In a move that pretty much everyone expected, Intel is being sued over the Raptor Lake instability issues, making what has been a nightmare situation for the company even worse. The suit alleges that Intel became aware of the defects in pre- and post-release testing, but it continued to market the processors with boasts about their speed and performance.

Intel's crashing CPU crisis deepens as more models are affected than originally thought
The issue extends beyond enthusiast chips, hinting at a more complex root cause
A hot potato: Intel probably thought the worst was behind them after the company identified the source of the instability surrounding its 13th- and 14th-gen CPUs and promised a patch to address the issue. But new reports say that the patch won't resolve the problems for processors already experiencing crashes. Even worse, whatever the problem is, it affects a broader range of models than previously assumed.
