You file warranty RMAs with Intel if you are adversely affected and they make you whole.

- janalsncm 2y agoYes, the article mentions that a class action only works if Intel isn’t honoring the warranty. The threat of a lawsuit is part of what incentivizes Intel to RMA instead of ignore.
- Dalewyn 2y agoIntel is already honoring most warranty claims as far as I'm aware, the only thing they've refused to do is issue a voluntary recall. So this supposed lawsuit isn't even serving that dubious purpose. As an aside, I have a 14700K. I've not filed for an RMA because it's been working perfectly fine for the better part of a year now.
- janalsncm 2y agoI have the 14900K too. My machine had some weird instability issues a few weeks ago but I haven’t had time to investigate if the chip caused it. I guess my point is that it’s better if Intel behaves, but if they don’t we have some recourse. Lawyers are a last resort thing.
