Lots of crashes with Intel Core i9 13900K and 14900K. Intel is investigating...

Everything crashes in Fortnite and Epic related games. Is it just a badly developed and hardware glitchy game? Never played it, not my thing with a thousand edged up teens.

Can't say I've really ever had any issues with "Epic" games... I don't play Fortnite, but my son used to and never reported anything wrong.

I play Fortnite a lot. Crashes are rare to non existent.
 
Ok I just had a few customers and was always linked to some Epic game. @GTP what do you do then now that L4D2 servers are constantly down, that is the only game you play isnt it?

I can play "Single Player" (with brain dead bots) or host games myself but no-one seems to able to join my games and I don't seem to able to join their self hosted games either. Not sure why.
Most people are self hosting now.
I also have over 300 custom campaigns I can play but playing with the bots absolutely sucks. They are dumber than noobs tbh.
So...I'm revisiting games I bought on various Steam sales and never played because I did only play L4D2.


Recently:
Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 Contracts (There was a new free DLC - Butchers Banquet - released today :))
Sniper Ghost Warrior 3
Bullet Storm Full Clip Edition

Perennial favorites:
Serious Sam Fusion + Mods (custom campaigns)
Serious Sam Siberian Mayhem + Mods (custom campaigns)
Serious Sam 4 + Mods (custom campaigns)

Going a bit stir crazy though not being able to play multiplayer L4D2!
 
Yeah, I built four or five high-end intel builds last year. There have been tons of issues, including the 13900k. The AMD builds equal power with no issues. I also stopped buying GPUs on Amazon. The last 3 3090 TIs I got off Amazon died within a month. I only get those on Amazon because of scarcity. Going direct has worked much better.

I have not yet commented on the now ubiquitous investigations and explanations of the problems with Intel’s 13th and 14th generation K-CPUs, because pure speculation brings nothing but more…

The Gigabyte Aorus 3080 GTX is actually better than the 3090 IMO for the price vs performance. I scored mine for $AUS800, I never purchase via Amazon with anything ever really.
