UPDATE: Gamer’s Nexus made a great video on the current state of Intel and I’m incredibly disappointed with how they are handling this issue. Everyone’s personal fixes have been varying almost processor to processor including a few of my friends so it seems now especially since new updates there are no single fixes and if the video’s fix isn’t working for you, your processor might be damaged and require RMA. I hate Brand loyalty and I don’t want to praise AMD coming from this situation either. Competition is good and no company will have our best interest without competition. That being said Intel has really disappointed me and I will be wary with their products going forward. I will potentially be making my own comparison videos between best processor offerings and hopefully bring the best unbiased advice I can. From my gut feeling, I will be waiting for the 3D cache variant of the current AMD chips to release for my next upgrade. Hopefully they will not give me as much headache as this intel generation has. -Ameli
Genuinely thank you so much for this video, I've been experiencing crashes only on my desktop applications like Chrome and Discord, and not games - but I knew it was my CPU that was the cause because any adjustments to the power limits would sway the crashes. This made me comfortable with undervolting, I've never seen anyone actually go through the workflow of actually doing it so this made me feel comfortable. Have you heard anything about Intel's next steps? Asus released an Intel Baseline profile, but this doesn't match their chart. Curious to what they'll do. So far I think your 0.02 undervolt has stabilized everything - for now. Thanks again for the video! I feel like this isn't being talked about enough, potentially everyone with these chips are crashing and there's radio silence from Intel.
Really glad this helped you :) I wasn't sure if it would be worth making the video but I knew it was the video I wish I had when I was going through this! Intel seems to be ignoring the issue and just expecting users to find their own solutions so not sure what to expect
BIOS Settings for Gigabyte: • Pervdrive: Optimize • Enhanced Multi-Core: Disable • CEP: ON • TVB: ON • Offset Voltage: -95 mV • IA VR Voltage Limit: 1375mV • IA VR Config: Enable • CPU Current Limit: 400 A • XMP Profile: XMP 1 • High Bandwidth: Enable • Low Latency: Enable • Loadline Calibration: Turbo • AC Loadline: 45 mΩ • DC Loadline: 45 mΩ • C-States: Enabled • Package C State Limit: C7 Dynamic Tuning Technology: • Dynamic Tuning Technology (DTT): Enabled This works for my CPU, you may have to change a little
There is one difference from the other videos that I’ve watched is that they disabled the multi core enchantment. Is there a reason you didn’t change just curious because I’ve been having issues with my new high end pc
Great question! Disabling Mutlicore enhancement enforces some of those limits we applied automatically which would be perfect. BUT it seems like Asus purposefully set limits lower than Intel’s recommended spec potentially to upset Intel? When I disable multicore enhancement it sets my limits to 280 Amp (which is lower then the base profile 307 Amp) I’ve just left it on so we can control those values ourselves! Hopefully this helped
Would you please bless me with this information : On an MSI z790 edge ti max the offset for undercoating , should I select -pwn or -cpu , it used to be just - or + now there is 2 options
From my understanding, pwn is the voltage reading near the regulator while cpu is the reading near the cpu. meaning if you do it by pwn, it means what voltage your cpu gets should be lower. i would use cpu but test a little bit with pwn if u have the time to see if you can get better results with the same offset
I have an i7 14700k with heat and voltage issues and the same mobo bios as u and changing the setting u told us to change made me crash hard during idle but changing the actual vrm core voltage not the svid voltage did the trick
Once you start getting crashes, there is likely some damage done to the chip. What a sh1tshow it is. I have gone for extreme stability over performance to see me out of this generation. On my 2x 13900k systems and my 1x 14900k system, I have set the E cores to 8, and all other power limits and clocks to match the 12900k spec. It now benches slightly better than a real 12900k, presumably because of an improved IPC. By setting the power limits (boost and overall amps), it doesn't go beyond 1.3v (give or take a few milivolts), so I didn't need to go through the stability testing cycle of manual undervolting. Plenty fast enough for me until I move platform. Don't get me wrong this is not a good thing, I just need to remain productive.
Its a shame this whole time ive been having random pc crashes for the past 5 years. Happened around a month in of having my new pc, it would crash when i play games or in the middle of simple things like just using google chrome. It then stopped for a couple of months like is was running fine. Then the crashing came back but it was more frequent. My CPU is intel i9-9900K. I then took my pc to THREE different pc specialists who all told me they couldnt figure out what the problem was because everything is working fine within my pc all the components, the temperature are all fine. Now that im hearing about intel having issues with their CPU this might just be the problem. My pc over the years would crash then it wouldnt for months but now its came back again.
Experiences like those are the absolute worst. Being a 9th gen processor it might just be defective and require replacement :( The reason its happening to all these processors are the extra heat is causing them to become defective. Pretty disappointing from Intel. Definitely see if you can RMA your chip if its within its warranty window. Hopefully you'll get some response from them!
I have a i7-13700K and an i9-14900K with that ASUS Prime Z790-A board. I had similar errors, but I don't think that isn't how I solved it. I'll look at my settings tomorrow.
