A game developer says it has had enough of Intel's 13th and 14th generation Core microprocessors, calling them "flawed."

Intel Lied About Raptor Lake Failures Today

Australian indie developer studio Alderon Games made public its frustrations with Intel's latest chips in an article titled "Intel sells defective 13-14th generation processors," written by studio founder Matthew Cassells.

"My team at Alderon Games, working on the multiplayer dinosaur survival game Path of Titans, have encountered significant issues with Intel CPU stability," he said. "These issues, including crashes, instability, and memory corruption, are limited to 13th and 14th generation processors. Despite all released microcode, BIOS, and firmware updates, the issue remains unresolved."

Stability issues on Raptor Lake processors first gained widespread attention in February and have been linked to some of the first 13th generation Raptor Lake processors to launch in late 2022. Intel's top-of-the-line Core i9-13900K and Core i9-14900K appear to be most affected, and there are some reports of the cut-down Core i7-13700K and Core i7-14700K also having issues.
