If I purchase a new i5 13600KF based system and run the latest BIOS on the motherboard am I going to have ZERO problems with stability / degradation? Are there any resources I am missing on how to build a new system with these 13th and 14th gen parts to have flawless operation? I have always trusted and enjoyed Intel products but these issues with the 13 and 14 gen have sort of shaken my confidence in the products...
Thanks,
S.

Hello Sadams6007,
Thank you for raising that concern via the Intel community, and to answer your concern, Intel has mitigated the Intel Core 13th and 14th Gen desktop processor Vmin Shift Instability issue with the 0x12B microcode update. Newly installed 13th and 14th generation desktop processors with an updated BIOS containing microcode update 0x12B and utilizing Intel default settings are not expected to experience the Vmin shift instability issue. Users who desire to overclock or utilize higher power delivery settings than recommended can still do so at their own risk, as overclocking may void warranty or affect system health (learn more at www.intel.com/overclocking).
