That's what Intel says - so you are taking Intel's own words as truth - if you to trust a company that has 2 generations of CPUs in a row largely released as defective, be my guest. Keep in mind the mobile/laptop market forms a much bigger share of profits, so it's in their interes to say something like that, do you see the conflict of interest here? And these problems can sometimes take 2-3 years to show up depending if you lightly use your laptop as cpus are resilient components. Even before intel knew what the issue actually was back in june/july it was saying laptop chips weren't affected. How is this even possible???


ALso if you actually bother to look at my link above, the title is clear too: Intel's laptops are crashing too because of this issue:

"Intel laptop CPUs are crashing, too, as the company remains silent"



And why release microchip updates for 'laptop' chips thar are not affected? Intel said laptop HX chips are not affected right? Then why release patches for them in september before releasing patches for the affected products 🤣🤣🤣 I mean intel was definitely saying laptop chips arenot affected, but then why have laptops been having the exact same issues, and  it seems it just had to release the patch for them anyway?


Here is some evidence or quotes:


See post here for example: [INTEL]-How To Update Your Microcode for Intel HX 13/14th Gen. CPUs Laptops/Mobile Easily.


"[So much for Intel HX not being affected... then why keep releasing microcode updates for Intel HX CPUs too? something is fishy going on here :wtf: if it is actually not affected... then at least make it only for desktops :kookoo: ] "


"As long as Intel won't admit the problem... non of the OEMs will move a finger about it. Intel statements about Intel HX not being affected is BS. Then why does Intel keep releasing microcode updates for Intel HX 13th/14th CPUs? If they are actually not affected, what's the reason behind those updates? Why did Intel keep releasing it if they actually not affected?"

"In any case, if a user’s processor is not affected, users will still have to flash new firmware (bad news to those who do not like updating BIOSes), either to support Intel Default Settings or to update the microcode, which supposedly addresses the problem."


In their answers, Intel repeatedly mentioned that the validation process is still ongoing, and even mobile CPUs are no longer mentioned as unaffected. We have included questions and answers in their entirety (except for questions without answers), Courtesy of The Verge:




If you want to believe what Intel says go for it - it's a risky gamble in my view, unless you have the money and time to resolve the situation if something happens.
