When a new generation of electronic device is launched, be it a smartphone, tablet, hard drive, cards, graphics, processor or any other, it is usually associated with an increase in its price, even if it can decrease over time. However, not all manufacturers follow this trend.
The latest example is found in the new range of Ryzen 9000 processors already available on the market, a range that has arrived on the market at a lower price than the processors Ryzen 7000 from AMD, something that, without a doubt, speaks very well AMDsince they could have maintained or even increased prices to have a larger profit margin since they are also releasing the Zen 5 architecture.
If AMD has done things very well, Intel, once again, is going in the wrong direction. Each new generation of processors that Intel launches on the market is more expensive than the previous one. With the presentation of the range of processors Ultra 200K Core Intel’s latest leak only confirms that Intel really does love money.

Goodbye to instability problems
Intel said a few days ago that this new generation of processors was saying goodbye to the stability issues which continues to present the 13th and 14th generations of its processors, despite the various BIOS updates that it has sent to manufacturers.
Intel claims that these problems will not recur because they use a new architectureso the instability problem of Vmin offset This will not happen again. The very delicate situation he finds himself in Intel After presenting the latest economic results, it is not ready to make a similar mistake, so, at first, we must hope that this problem, which has affected two generations of its processors, will not happen again.
