The issues affecting Intel Raptor Lake CPUs have been plaguing users for well over a year now. Intel initially suggested that overclocking and overvolting was to blame, suggesting users and OEMs return to the company’s recommended baseline voltages.
In July, Intel finally identified the cause of the problems: a microcode algorithm error sent the wrong amount of voltage to CPUs. A patch is arriving this month, but it is mostly to prevent unaffected processors from being impacted.
