Yours is probably in better shape than mine. The 13 and 14 series specifically had a design flaw in the microcode that overvolts them. They slowly burn out over time, and the damage is irreversible.

Earlier processors aren't affected. It's specific to this series. But the only "fix" is a microcode patch that nerfs performance, so I'd rather just ride it out and switch to AMD.
