This is well and good, but what about that permanent damage?
And while its a good move, dont assume its out of the goodness of Intels heart.
There are reports that a law firm has started investigating and filing a class-action lawsuit against the chipmaker.
Instead, Intel told Jerubedo that the products they purchased were re-marked and not genuine.
This is despite purchasing two boxed 14900Ks, one from Amazon and the other from Microcenter.
Intel refused to back down and said that the chips were, in fact, fraudulent.
