Reliability issues of intel 13th and 14th gen cpus

Came across this video today-its really alarming to say the least. Are the claims being made here applicable to the entire 13th and 14th gen lineup,or to the high end chips only? Is it at all a good idea to consider getting something like a 13400F to upgrade an entry level gaming pc? also how about the 12th gen processors-are they affected by any of these problems?

Soundbar buying advice

Hi everyone, I have a Samsung QAQ60B TV and looking for a good VFM soundbar to use with it. I've never owned a soundbar and know nothing about it. So please suggest some models, what to look for, what not to consider etc. It's mostly going to be used to watch OTT content. The problem with the TV's inbuilt speakers is that most of the times when watching movies, the volume of the dialogues sound lesser compared to the background music. For example, I had the worst audio experience when... Read mo
