"Unreal Engine Games Experiencing Increased Crashes, Epic Points Finger at Intel Chips"
Epic Games' division RAD is attributing increasing reports of crashes in Unreal Engine games to Intel's latest CPUs, particularly the Core i9 13900K and 14900K processors, due to their power-hungry nature and BIOS settings that push them further. The crashes are not caused by software issues and can be mitigated by adjusting CPU settings in the BIOS or using Intel's Extreme Tuning Utility. The issue affects some Core i7 models as well, and may be related to the quality variation among processor samples. Users experiencing crashes can stabilize their PCs by adjusting CPU settings, but may also consider requesting a replacement chip.
