I recently replaced my faulty I9-14900K with a new one because my old one was constantly crashing for the last 2 years or so. I was under the impression that just the CPU was faulty and that replacing it would solve it, but anything it feels like its gotten worse. I've done everything I can find on Google in bios including downloading latest bios as well as changing all my voltages and stuff. I'm mainly curious what would most likely be the culprit, I read on Google that my previous cpu could essentially degrade my other components, and I'm assuming thats whats happened but I cant really afford to buy an entirely new computer.

I honestly wouldnt mind returning my CPU, buying a new motherboard and swapping to AMD, but I fear my old corrupted CPU has bricked my RAM or GPU. Any advice relating to any of this mess would be greatly appreciated.
