   @Aether Who's saying you only need 500W for overclocking modern CPUs? Intel? :jahy_headache:

     Motherboard makers apparently to blame for high-end Intel Core i9 CPU failures, says Intel.

     Another garbage article from the Ars Technocrats, and they are getting roasted in the comments.
     
     TL;DR version: It turns out that running desktop CPUs at 500W is bad. Who knew? Intel knew. And they are trying to shift the blame to their motherboard partners for helping Intel fake benchmark results.
     
     Lower-end Intel CPUs (the non-K parts) are mostly fine.
