I bought a 13600k a few months ago. Applied all the microcode patches but I think the processor is toast. If I’m able to boot up most programs just crash. Steam loads once out of every 10 times I try and open it. Forget games.
I spent $400+ CAD on this processor less than 6 months ago. It’s unusable now. I will never ever purchase an intel processor again, even if they fix this and this never happens again. I was sold a defective product and I have no recourse to get my money back.
I have an unusable computer.
Can you not claim warranty / do an RMA?
They won’t accept it because it’s out of the package and has been used for some months.
That's returning it to the seller. In your country there's implied warranty from the manufacturer and they will have to honor your claims if it is showing defects
