It has been wise for years to subtract 15-20% off Intel’s initial performance claims and the benchmarks at release. There’s always some post-release patch that hobbles the performance, even when the processors are stable.
Yes, but lucky for some of us that practice is still illegal in parts of the world. I just don’t get why they still get away with it (they do get fines but the over all practice is still normalized).
I sure would not want any 13 or 14 gen Intel in any equipment I was responsible for. Think of the risk over any IT departments head with these CPUs in production, you would never really trust them again.
