Intel's Alder Lake CPUs May Not Work With Older Games

Let's hope Intel is not going to mess this one.
In all honest I would feel more comfortable with Intel (mostly because I never tried AMD and they seem easier to setup) but my current plan is to buy what's going to be best as soon as I can grap a GPU at a decent price.

No. Are the mobo not available yet either?
Sorry. i thought as with most things, they had launched.
So people are seriously buying more than one chip, and have no mobo to plug them into?
This is actually happening?

I actually did but i'll expand.

Its one of my pet peeves about so called tech journalists, they put out a lot of crap pertaining to communicate useful information but its actually almost completely useless, and its a strange thing because its a very simple question that's being asked and all it requires is a very simple answer, and yet somehow they still manage to #### it up.

AMD said the performance difference is as much as 20%, they even said specifically in titles where the CPU matters, like eSports, before that other tech journalists had found a ~20% reduction in performance in games like Rocket League and CS:GO, eSports.

So: Igore Labs, like an idiot takes two AAA titles, where the problem was not apparent in the first place, at least not to any meaningful extent, and then shows a margin of error level difference fixed, hm? yeah cheers.....

I suppose my only point was, that from a methodology point of view, his article seems valid. He's demonstrated a performance drop from W10>W11, then he showed that with an updated build/patch, the performance is restored.
To change one thing at a time seems fair to me, so I don't understand why you're criticising the article?
