Avalon1226

And had to be the new BIOS. I put the old bios back on put everything on auto and it went to thermal throttling and did not crash, put everything back to power limits of 320 Watts auto voltage getting a 39,000 on cine bench without a crashing. And one thing I had to get used to is the overclock settings are different than my 12th gen in terms of voltage and power limits and I think that was also one of my issues as I kept trying to use the voltage that I used on the 12th gen with the new 14th gen and the chip was just not happy, instead of setting a limit for 1.3 or 1.25 volts this chip needs a little bit more juice, about 1.43v

I hope that's the fix cuz I just "downgraded" that the BIOS and while doing a cinebench run with the same power limits of 320 Watts The voltage doesn't seem to go as high about1.35v vs 1.46. The one weird thing though is it does jump to 365 watts from time to time where with the newest bios it stayed at 320w and not higher.

Yeah I'm going to give that a shot when I get home. Not realizing till I watch jay2cents video that it's basically the same chip as a 13th gen. Maybe this BIOS just has a bug and then I'll try reverting the settings back to what I had them and see if it crashes. Because I was able to run it at 6 GHz and get us in a bench score of 40,000 on one of the reboots but like I said it's a hit or miss. I also did clone the drive from a one terabyte to a 2 TB drive and the first blue screens of death I was getting was for corrupted windows files. But I already reinstalled Windows and still getting those error messages, but I've installed Windows with keeping files and settings.

So if I do upgrade the board to a DDR5 I shouldn't have memory issues? I know lowering the wattage to 300 watts causes the system to be more stable but I can't hit 40,000 in cinebench anymore the highest it'll go is 37,000

I'll give that a shot, because I do have the latest update. I didn't have a issue with XMP on the 12700k even when that chip was overclocked

Yes I have in November before I upgraded the chip, I'll look tonight and see if they have another update

I have a MSI - MPG Z690 EDGE WIFI DDR4 Socket LGA 1700 USB 3.2 Intel Motherboard that I used to run with an i7 12700K with no issues. I've recently upgraded to an i9 14900K and am having some stability issues. Sometimes the system will run fine for hours, sometimes it would BSOD after a minute, sometimes it would freeze while booting. Could the motherboard be trying to push too much power to the CPU that the motherboard can't handle?

The fan on the pump is spinning, and at idle the fans dont ramp up like the used to but under load they do, probably due to the lower idle temps

Its a exhaust, the arrow on the fan is pointing outwards

Heres pictures, the hwinfo one is idle and one is under load from cinebench after 10 sec.

I wish I test them but the headers for the pump and the fan were so hard to get to I'm afraid to mess with it again lol. I might mess with the fans changing them to intake vs exhaust to see the temperature differences. One thing I have noticed so far is my idle temps are lower than the MSI mag cool AIO was but the artic cooler seems to get hotter faster when running stress tests. I don't know if I did something wrong with the install, or I know they had a cover issue on some MSI boards like the MSI MPG z690 carbon where the cover of the AIO would get in the way and my motherboard is MSI - MPG Z690 EDGE, so I did just email their support to see if this was a issue and why I was getting thermal throttling with this AIO vs my crappy one no thermal throttling.

So did I do something wrong? When at idle the temperatures are a little bit cooler at 24c-32c with the artic freeze vs 28c-35c with the msi, but when running a stress test like cinebench the temps do go to 100c and starts to thermal throttle with the artic freeze and when it was the msi it was 85c and no thermal throttling, same core speed and everything.

i did, but i already had the fans and the rgb attachment

I went with the arctic going to use the noctua nf-f12 fans with phanteks rgb attached to the fans, but hopefully the back plate for the msi won't be too hard to remove since it's double sided taped on the motherboard.

i was thinking of going with the artic freezer, or would any or the other options be better. i am going to put on the noctua NF-F12 to the rad
