You seem to have left out some further interesting bits in your paraphrasing from the article:
- Aside from the CPUs you have mentioned, note the article also mentions that Intel's 11th-gen chips had the highest failure rate - "Another interesting tidbit that Puget revealed is that Intel’s 11th-generation Intel Core processors had the most failures among all recent processors, with a recorded rate of over 7%. The issues with 11th-Gen Intel Core processors haven’t been widely reported, so we’re unsure about their cause and how (or if) Intel resolved them."
- "As with all failure rate data that doesn't come directly from the chipmaker, Puget's data should be taken with a grain of salt."
The 13th and 14th-gen chips had ACTUAL CPU defects due to a messed-up microcode implementation. With the 7000 series it was due to excessive default SoC voltage from the motherboard. This was fixed with a simple voltage limit cap. The affected 13th and 14th gen chips were damaged permanently. Regarding the 9800x3d and (mostly) ASrock motherboards, let's await more concrete info on the cause(s) behind the recorded incidents.
You can be sure GN is already dissecting this like a frog in a biology lab
