Looks like my 12v rail stays pretty constant at 11.980v with an occasional change to 11.887v, I see this with a polling speed of 57ms (chosen cause i was pretty sure the oscillation speed wasnt a multiple of 57 lol)
Ok wow, thanks for all the very specific help! Ill try as you mentioned and see whats going on, I'll keep the thread updated with any questions or uploading those events if necessary.
Jesus, I learned a whole lot just reading this. thanks. Ive updated the chipset firmware, ran the mem test and got back 0 errors, so im inclined to believe you are correct about the BIOS. I'll attempt updating it, and I'll keep the thread updated
Interesting, something that may be related is when I tried updating the firmware for my nvme 860 evo it just wouldnt. Updated the firmware for my other samsung ssd just fine. Would it be possible to reinstall the driver or is that m2 ssd hopeless?
