I wonder if this has anything to do with Intel's big snafu with gen 13/14 processors. If the solution was to push a microcode update cuts the voltage to the CPUs, it's basically a "stealth" nerf. Their spin doctors have been working overtime to frame this as erroneously high voltages that were being "fixed".
I'd really like to see this graph divided between Intel and AMD.
i used to put orange stealth nefs up my nose as a child
Did that speed things up for you?
no, and it cut down on the airflow to my processor
Did it stop coolant leak though?
How do we spin this as an upgrade?
