    There are 2 possible answers here. 1 apo requires a specific new component on the cpu that older chips don’t have. Or 2, intel is just screwing old gen chips to pressure buyers into buying the 14th gen

      They wouldn’t go through the whole engineering process again to change the 14th Gen. That’s too much cost.

      It might be true that something about 13 and 14 are different from 12, since that’s a new die. The 13400 is based on 12th gen dies however. And if the 14400 is still based on that 12th Gen die, I’d say it’s nothing but software. So if the 14400 supports this, it’s nothing but software.
