re: raptor lake 'issues'

this one is a 14th gen on an asus board. less than a year old, i think. constant crashes and other 'quirks'. system builder (wasn't my purchase decision) is known to be a pain to deal with on warranty service. so we'll see what happens.

the first was a 13th gen xps. problems from first boot up. dell was great on addressing intel's issue. swapped the board and chip, and it had a brand-spankin'-new firmware that wasn't even pushed to their website yet. paid freight both ways, including priority overnight air return.

the last build i did for someone, we specifically went zen4 to avoid all the various 'problems' that both companies were still dealing with.
