I'm sure most will know because they keep in the loop with Technology news off-site, but for those who don't Intel have released a Performance Tuning Protection Plan.

The Performance Tuning Protection Plan being offered by Intel is a chance for you to experiment with the overclocking features of your processor without the worries of what will happen if you push the procesor too far. The Plan allows you a single processor replacement, hassle-free, from our customer support. This is in addtion to your standard 3 year warranty. In other words, if it fails under normal usage, we will replace it under the standard warranty; if it fails while running outside of Intel's specifications, we will replace it under the Performance Tuning Protection Plan.

So what we are saying is this: Go ahead and push it, we've got your back.

Applicable to specific processors only.

that seems REALLY cheap. especially for a company releasing laptops CPUs where you can "unlock" additional performance by buying an "upgrade card".
But hey, $35 to replace my chip after i cook it isn't bad. Although it can have a counter effect.
Noobs + UEFI + cheap chip replacement = lots of burning compters
