$5,000 Corsair pre-built keeps on frying Intel CPUs due to lack of BIOS update, tech alleges — kills three Intel Core i9 chips because latest version still doesn’t have fix for Intel crashing issues
A YouTuber and technician reported that Corsair's $5,000 pre-built PCs are frying Intel CPUs due to a lack of BIOS update, leading to multiple replacements of Intel Core i9 chips. Intel had released a fix for the Vmin instability issue, but Corsair has not updated its custom BIOS to include this solution. Despite Intel's extended warranty for affected chips, Corsair's engineers have not released a new BIOS, causing inconvenience for customers and technicians. Without a BIOS update from Corsair, replacing the motherboard may be the only solution to prevent further CPU damage.
