\n

While there\u2019s still no fix for chips that are already crashing<\/a>, the company is now releasing microcode update 0x12B to motherboard manufacturers to help prevent one of the root causes of damage. In this case, it prevents the Intel CPU from asking for too much power when it\u2019s just sitting idle or performing light tasks. (Too much voltage can prematurely age a chip.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Intel says it may take several weeks for motherboard manufacturers to validate and roll out BIOS updates across their products \u2014 but that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you should wait. Previous BIOS updates contain two earlier Intel microcode fixes to help prevent damage, as well as new power settings that could also reduce the risk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Intel still hasn\u2019t answered our questions about how many Raptor Lake chips have likely been affected by these and other possible instability issues, or identified batches of chips that were affected by an earlier oxidization issue, but we\u2019re asking again now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
