My once-rock-solid homelab server started suffering random crashes and segfaults after a year 😫. I spent months testing everything – memory, PSU, OS – and **the culprit turned out to be the Intel Core i7-13700K CPU itself** (a known issue for 13th/14th Gen). I’ve documented the whole saga, including how Intel’s RMA got me a replacement chip in just 4 days.
