Cursed hardware

My Intel 14900K has been giving me trouble pretty much since the day I got it.

Luckily, I usually work across four computers at the same time, because if this were my only machine, I’d be absolutely screwed.

This CPU feels cursed. And honestly, it kind of is. I’m sure plenty of people remember Intel’s whole microcode saga and the chaos it caused for a lot of users.

The weird part is that everything around this PC also seems to take turns failing. If it’s not the processor, it’s the hard drive. If it’s not that, it’s the graphics card. At this point, I half expect the power button to file for emotional damages.

But I keep insisting on it.

I like the damn thing.
