They are still failing even when underclocked.
It's not that simple.
I have seen and heard zero evidence of that. I have seen and heard of zero people who run manual voltage settings have issues. And also zero people running stock settings who have actually seen degradation. The only reports, with pictures of before and after scores, of degradation I have seen are users who used Auto OC, or manually set the ratios but used Auto Voltage. This info coming from large FB groups I'm in. Just everyday users not some YouTuber cherry picking things for clicks. This is being highly blown out of proportion. An update will fix it. Intel rarely makes these mistakes. Sure, they, are thirsty, whatever, V8s are thirsty, it's the American way to hotrod it to the limit.
Company I work for has had to RMA hundreds of 13tb and 14th gen Intel laptops before their EOL (End Of Life).
Some are overheating. Others are running at super slow speeds such as 0.28 or 0.66 GHz at random.
As a percentage sold, what would your guess be? Are these K models? Laptops as a rule have cooling issues as it is so that would only exacerbate the issue. But just from what I've seen on the desktop side, only users using the Auto OC and/or Auto Voltage with manual ratios have seen any degradation. Nobody who set their own voltage in BIOS has any trouble, and nobody with a non-K or a K that is at stock settings, seems to have any trouble. At least, none have reported it and showed their cinebench scores before and after. Regardless, Intel makes products in the US and AMD sold out to Taiwan, so I'll stay Intel.
