Today Intel launched the Performance Tuning Protection Plan, which will last six months. Its essence lies in the fact that the company is ready to replace the burned processor with a new one on condition of purchasing a certificate, the most expensive of which costs $ 35. The program involves strictly defined processors, presented below:
A certificate purchased (via Paypal) will allow you to replace a failed processor once by contacting the local Intel Customer Support Center, and the old one will have to be submitted for examination; The number of purchased certificates is not limited. The program itself does not extend to an already issued processor.
