This save has crashed 4x when doing the same thing. Hold the blueprint for the reactor which I put in inventory. It seems to consistently have an issue with the calculation of the fluid system within the blueprint when I am trying to place it in the city block. It's a vanilla save file with the Space Age DLC.

Post the unedited log of a session with the crash and without compatibility mode.

Even before he posts proper logs... It's a Raptor Lake, CPU is most likely hosed.

Posted: **Thu Apr 23, 2026 2:12 am**

Here's the next crash. It happed a bit later but seems to also involve the same EntityWithHealth::drawFluidVisualizationInternal .
I hope it's not the chip

I got it cheap because of that whole fiasco but applied all the microcode patches before actually plugging it in.

Posted: **Thu Apr 23, 2026 6:29 am**

That crash is in different part of code so it is a hardware problem, with it being a raptor lake chip that is likely the cause.
The processor should still be under warranty, you can check here: https://supporttickets.intel.com/s/warr ... uage=en_US

Posted: **Thu Apr 23, 2026 7:13 am**

Applying the bios update will only avoid Raptor Lake CPU damage if it was applied before the CPU was damaged due to heat overload. In case you bought a used CPU and it was already damaged, the bios update will not help. If the cpu is damaged, it's permanent damage and the only help is to replace it. Intel extended the warranty, your CPU is definitely eligible for replacement.

Posted: **Thu Apr 23, 2026 8:35 am**

More technical details and analysis can be found here:
https://machaddr.substack.com/p/extensi ... the-raptor

There is nothing else you can do apart from replacement, permanent hardware damage cannot be fixed by the game or other software.

Do they honour warranty on second hand CPUs where current owner does not have invoice or purchase details? That's the case for thousands of them..

Posted: **Thu Apr 23, 2026 9:13 am**

As far as I read, Intel will also support warranty exchanges for 2nd hand CPUs without original invoice. You seem to need the cpu serial number which is printed on the CPU (need to remove heat sink, which must be remounted properly with fresh thermal paste in case you want to power up the cpu again).

Posted: **Thu Apr 23, 2026 3:24 pm**

It was new and sealed in box unless of course the seller did something shady with it. I'll dig into the return or put my old i5-12600
back in. Or perhaps I can manually disable a problem core considering I have some to spare. Thanks.

Edit-
Actually the diagnostics tool seems to not see an issue with the CPU. Could it be a problem with windows 11? I heavily lobotomized my install but don't know how that would affect Factorio if it isn't missing any assets, that's why I was trying compatibility modes earlier. The only other program I have seen crashes in is Starcraft2 but they aren't really maintaining that very well.

Factorio was your diagnostic tool, and it detected a CPU failure. That's it. You cannot undo CPU damage.
Why you say they don't maintain Starcraft 2? Code is mature, game is not crashing, I haven't noticed any bugs during my gameplay when I played it last. Starcraft 2 has never crashed on me, nor any other Blizzard game, for many thousands of hours, in last 10 years. That tells me something (if not about software vendor, then about my hardware at least).
