And recently I have bought a possibly broken 14 gen i9 cpu.
Oh yeah I remember that.
There were so many offers on eBay that were very tempting when that issue came out, but instead I coughed up the money for the Atom C3xxx series and the board still works to this day in a lovely 8 bay Norco chassis (looks like this: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2255800663435752.html)
I was enjoying my laptop's i7-13850HX. Murphy's Law seems likely to strike me again with this one croaking in a few months...
