Nah. It's a big deal.
The 13th and 14th gen Intel processors are failing, sometimes as little as 6 months after purchase.
Processors normally last for decades unless the motherboard or power supply fries them.
Also, Intel has had to disable multithreading on older chips due to security issues, but most of the enthusiasts had already moved on to the next gen months before that happened.
I've been following it and am part of several FB groups and the overwhelming majority of folks answering surveys have had no issues, running manual voltage settings or stock speed. Those who used the "Auto OC" in XTU have seen degradation, I have only heard of some claimed failures and mostly "my cousin's uncle's brother said" stories. Not a single picture. Nowhere near as many as R9s that burnt up a few months ago. Which I saw a lot of, with pictures.
Nobody cared about Spectre because it was an irrelevant issue, totally hypothetical, that was never actually taken advantage of by any real hackers. IMHO it was a backdoor that someone accidentally let word of slip out.
