    Apparently clear CMOS on this BIOS version sets the CPU to 280A ICCMAX and 253W PL1 and PL2. I just tried load optimized defaults and then cleared CMOS. And the Cinebench R23 score is 36.5K points. Which kinda sucks for a 14900K?
    EDIT: I think I made a mistake in this video saying that better power delivery is why it doesn't crash as much as the Gigabyte Z790 Xtreme X board. The Apex Encore defaults to 0.55mOhm AC LL which is higher than gigabyte's 0.4mOhm AC LL. So it's not better power delivery it's just more voltage.

      Yeah 13900KS and I got about the same score on mine. I thought that was a lot. Previous bios with just XMP and Disable - enforce all limits set was 39.7K. I am also watercooling with direct die. Truthfully wasn't having performance issues anyway, was just curious, so reverting back to previous bios with the settings I had.

      280A * 4 - 1024=96. Your board is setting ICCMAX to 96. I have no idea if this is AMI's, Intel's or Asus' doing.

      Interesting. Intel baseline for 14700K also is 280 / 253w. 36.5K definitely is 14700K AIO OC territory..

      Before the hotfix and without any undervolt attempts CB23 dropped my cpu's p-core frequency down to 4.6 GHz (worst case) while pulling 253 watts. That was so weird. Now with the uCode 123 it drops to 5.2, while pulling 220 watts. I don't know what Asus did or if they simply didn't give a dang about K-processor behavior on their B660 lineup, but things are going that well, I refund the Gigabyte Z790 I ordered a few days ago. OC with these chips anyway is pointless anyway :D

      no, if you tweak your own settings many of them do just fine with stock clocks and good volte/watts - and also fine when you go to overclock. I have no idea why the collection of defaults are doing what they are doing - maybe in the past it didnt matter but they have been turning it up slowly over time in various ways and now they shit the bed.

      My biggest problem with this whole debacle is when you run the intel spec limits that they claim should have your 14th gen i7 14700k cpu boost to 5.5 all core and 5.6 single. Yet, instead it drops it all the way down to 4.8-4.9 boost all core and 5.0 single core. I would put the blame on the mobo vendors if it was just because they were running the boards with too much juice to help get better scores but with the intel defaults it doesn't come close to running the advertised specs. So I would love to see what board and cooling setup the intel team used to say these cpu's can pass on to production. Maybe intel needed mobo manufacturers to boost up voltage to be able to achieve the so called up to 5.5/5.6 boost. Second question is why even have a k series or KS if you can't actually overclock it without running delidded or extreme cooling. I am at the point where I am going to revert back to a previous bios just so I can manually set the specs and still get the clock speeds promised.

      There is no "base baseline spec" that is 125/188 for i9 processors, you might be looking at prerelease QS specs which had a 188w PL2 mode. Neither gigabyte nor Asus are actually running Intel spec in these profiles, but what's actually killing performance is their use of SVID failsafe.

    @RurouTube หลายเดือนก่อน +19

    The problem is that Intel in their 14900K presentation, if their numbers are correct, they were NOT using baseline profile. The easiest example would be Cinebench 2024 result where 14900K in multicore apparently is 1.06x faster than 7950X and the only way you can get to 1.06X faster is to not limit the CPU to 253W. Recently HUB did this baseline profile benchmark and using Asus baseline, 14900K performance in Cinebench 2024 is practically similar to 7950X and not faster. So basically if I buy an Intel 14900K and I can't get like around 2200 in Cinebench 2024 because either it is not stable at the old default/optimized profile from the mainboard or it degraded that now it is not stable unless using the baseline profile then I will definitely request a replacement otherwise I would say that Intel is lying.

    • @Jas7520
      @Jas7520 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      If you run Intel specs you still beat the 7950X, you only tie the 7950X if you enable SVID failsafe like these dogshit "Intel Baseline" profiles do, because you overvolt the hell out of the CPU and hit the power cap quicker.

    @PsychupforGeat หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    The reason these motherboards have such dramatically different results is due to their VRM used for voltage regulation and delivery. How these motherboards handle voltage is a top secret of each manufacturer, and it is especially critical for new processors as voltage needs to be delivered rapidly and steadily in nanoseconds. The worse boards with inferior components and design simply cannot keep up with the voltage requests from the CPU. The simple solution is to provide a constant higher voltage to disregard the CPU requests.

  • @Phlash_Foto
    @Phlash_Foto หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    It should be listed as follows: (or similar)
    -Safe boot default
    -Intel optimized default (spec to rated voltage, current, power, temp to conservative values, ie. no over voltage)
    -Any other boost settings
    Between Intel and the motherboard manufacturers redlining the designs and components; heck even over volt and over current out of the box. They are basically doing what we overclockers use to do for years. But at least we use to test out a chip to its max and understand what to look for and fine tune it. Even back down a few settings to get a stable system. Intel and board partners don’t know or give a damn; they just add more voltage and clock higher. Stability, reliability be damn.

    What Intel meant with getting the load-line calibration values as low as possible is not that the manufacturers should just enter low default values into their BIOSes, but rather that they should work to optimize their PCB designs so that the load-line values reported by the Intel tool are lower. The values represent the current-dependent voltage drop caused by the PCB (from both resistance and inductance). The manufacturer has to enter these physical properties of the PCB into the BIOS faithfully in order for the VRM to work right. It's pretty bad if the manufacturer enters a wrong value, both when it's too low and also when it's too high, as that will essentially give random voltages to the CPU which have nothing to do with what the CPU actually requested. Intel unfortunately can't just require the manufacturers to enter a certain load-line calibration value as it's entirely dependent on the actual PCB design. Always forcing the maximum value is also really stupid for the same reasons... It's still wrong, just in the other direction, and the CPU still doesn't get the voltage it requested. (Depending on the implementation, a too-high AC load-line calibration value can also cause voltage undershoots, particularly when the VID is scaled down, so it might still crash...)
    It's really rather weird that the Gigabyte board changes its load-line calibration values with that "Intel profile" turned on... Enabling a profile doesn't suddenly make the power planes on the PCB thinner. The values should stay the same.

      And it's really strange that AHOC, as a Hardcore OC'er, would keep advocating for NVIDIA style lockdowns; similarly it's really strange hearing him say that MB vendors should all be forced to run very high (near max spec) Load Line Calibration settings (as in the BIOS setting, not the hardware impedance values) *and* lock those settings so that users can't tune them, after all the videos where he's stated that Load Line Vdroop is a very good thing and that users who run high LLC settings are idiots.
      Yes the MB vendors should obviously get punished if they're not following the secret design docs to a T, and Intel should really get spanked if they didn't validate their specs or if they sold CPUs that don't meet those minimum specs.
      I also really dislike this mass media push for more restrictive power limits and BIOS settings, because I *really* don't want to go back to the years of sub 200W CPUs where you can't get any substantial performance improvements from direct-die cooling with -20C liquid. So you just buy whatever "Extreme Edition" CPU and are out of luck for the next 3-5 years if you need more CPU performance in a game (to avoid literally throwing up from the frame times jittering between 6~9ms).
      I admit that I'm biased, since I'm one of those (stupid, yes) people who "upgraded" from an SP 98 13900KS to a 14900KS (turned out to have an SP = 109), which I de lidded, sanded down ~ 200um off the die's backside and ~ 400um off the waterblock, then finally had a shop lap both flat and smooth to < 500nm and < 100nm RMS respectively.
      But still, having access to all of these settings really made a tangible improvement to my system's performance in DCS, with the cooling required to keep 6.4GHz @ 1.6V below 40°C at "idle" and 50°C in gaming loads (HT, E-Cores and all power saving settings are disabled. Windows power profile edited in BIOS to ensure the CPU keeps at least 2 cores fully active at a constant 6.4GHz at idle and then verified over 30min at idle, with network cable, monitor and mouse unplugged, that the CPU keeps pulling 200~220W with Vcore measured by multimeter to stay between 1.55~1.58V)

      You don't sound very smart on this. You realize that the manufacturers get handed a fully complete schematic from Intel, and it's the manufacturer that is tweaking the design to try to make it unique. It would make sense then, that there are specs for load line calibration, how voltages/current are monitored/tuned by the motherboard.

    • @jonathans175
      @jonathans175 25 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@CookieManCookies It's not the schematics that determine a board's VCore power plane impedance. The schematic only determines *which* things are connected on the PCB, but not *how* they're connected (trace thickness, trace length, number of vias, copper plating weight, etc). The physical construction of the board is determined during the PCB layouting phase, which means that two boards with identical schematics but slightly different physical component placement can have wildly different load-line calibration values.
      If you look at boards from different vendors, you'll see immediately that the PCB layouts are drastically different even as you go up or down a single vendor's lineup. Heck, even the number of PCB layers varies. As a result, the power plane impedance is also never the same.

    I agree it doesn't seem like a degradation issue. 12th Gen are also affected & it shows in a different way: LAGG/Delay through all CPU processes - easily confused for Ram/Ethernet lagg until using certain software & CPU processes (Game Engine) / Older version of firefox. 12900KF I noticed it was at 60% CPU load but also 54% (Grain of salt windows measuring because "didn't care" at the times). The Asus Z690 3401 bios helped. 3501 bios with "intel safe" actually seems to perform the same. Prior the issues happened. So either 1 issue or 2 in what I've seen on 12900KF & 13900K because while 1 freezes out & the other crashes out it happens in the same processes & when it happens it really reminds me of dealing with memory leaks.... but that's my opinion from my experience.

You can have internally temp overshoot because there is only a limit number of sensors inside the chip, so having a the current limit on can help avoiding a guaranteed temperature overshoot.

    I want to understand not every 13th and 14th gens intel i9 Core have this instabillity issues? only lowest bins? like if I were lucky and win the silicon lottery and get around the highest SP score available I would not encounter instabillity issues? my previous 14900K was SP100 and got the out of video memory issues and BSOD sometimes but I could not run The Finals , every time the game was crashes btw I sold it and planning to try my luck again....

    yours is within the top 5 worse 14900k SP (91) that i have seen. Beyond that, we are getting to the same conclusion, the voltage regulation plays a (pivotal) role , it is not even the pl1/pl2 or degradation (Assuming it exists) rather if the motherboard voltage regulator reacts to spikes. So a "worse" mb, or to be more precise, one with a worse voltage regulator will end up causing instability, and by limiting icc max that spike is contained within a value that the board can handle.

My z-690-e gaming was updated yesterday. Since i updated it i enabled the intel baseline profile and it seems to be running fine. I really didn't have any stability problems before the update tbh (prolly cause im using a 13700k), I did experience some very random crashes in some games like 7 days to die or cs2 from time to time. Most of the time the games will just close without a crash.
    Voltages have been pretty reasonable. The highest i saw was 1.46 while playing cs2, and it jumps from 1.1 to 1.3 while browsing or normal use. In idle it gets quite low, up to 0.7v.

I had it stable in CB23 with an undervolt of -0.005v, all PCores at 5.9, Enforce All limits and using the Intel Extreme power limits 420Amps, 320watts short/long. XMP1 at 6000 MT/S, LLC on 7. (This was all before the Intel stability scandal) was stable in games and benches and would never thermal throttle. All of a sudden, 2 days ago, it would crash in all games (BF2042, COD, Star Citizen, and MSFS2020) Updated to latest BIOS with the Intel baselines and although stable, it runs super hot and benches atrociously at 32k in CB23. It will never boost higher than 5.4Ghz. I have a 360 AiO. SP is 107, with PCores at SP115, ECores SP 77, IMC at 95.
    I clearly don't know what some of these settings do, as I'm not an overclocker. Tried to follow some best practices but they're all over the place. I just want to get what I paid for, and am using decent hardware. Also don't want to "degrade" my CPU but I feel it could do better. Any ideas where I should start with the tuning? Should I be looking at the LLC, or any manual settings away from the auto settings? Should I even bother to run XMP for my 6K MT/s ram? Are you running XMP at all?
