The new BIOS implements two main […]
Intel has provided an official statement on the 14th & 13th Gen CPU instability issue matter saying that it's better to use its "Default Settings" in BIOS. Don't Use Motherboard Makers "Baseline Default" Profile, "Intel Default Settings" Are The Official Solution To 14th & 13th Gen Instability Issues It's been months since the 14th & 13th Gen CPU instability issues caught the limelight of the tech media and now, Intel has finally offered an official statement which seems to be a total reversal for motherboard makers who have already rolled out their own BIOS profiles to mitigate the issues. In […]
Intel has started requesting motherboard makers to implement its "Default Settings" for 14th & 13th Gen CPUs as BIOS defaults. Intel Motherboard & System Partners Tackle 14th & 13th Gen CPU Stability Issues By Reverting To "Intel Default Settings" So while the stability issues on the Intel 14th & 13th Gen CPUs continue to mount, motherboard makers took the first step in resolving or fixing them by implementing new BIOS profiles that set the CPUs to the default "Baseline" settings recommended by Intel. Now, Intel itself has requested motherboard makers and system vendors who are responsible for building PCs to […]
ASRock has become the latest motherboard maker to implement "Intel Baseline Profile" BIOS functionality on its Z790 & B760 products. Intel's 14th & 13th Gen CPU Stability Issues Continue To Rise, ASRock Is The Latest To Add Baseline Profile Feature In Z790 / B760 Motherboard BETA BIOS As pressure mounts on Intel to release a statement regarding the degrading stability of its 13th and 14th Gen CPUs, motherboard makers have started to implement new BIOS features that help set the chips to the "Intel Baseline Profile" or default settings which limit the power & voltages so that the CPUs can […]
A tester at Chiphell has gone his way to find the stability rate of Intel's Core i9-14900K & 13900K CPUs as the chip manufacturer has yet to identify the root cause of the stability issues affecting these chips. Intel Core i9-14900K & Core i9-13900K CPUs End Up Poorly In Stability Tests, Poor Silicon Being Pushed Too Hard Over at Chiphell, a user by the name of kmdkai, has managed to put several hundreds of Intel Core i9-14900K and Core i9-13900K CPUs through a series of stability tests to determine just how well they respond to the "AUTO" profiles being dished […]
Intel seems to have released an update regarding its 14th & 13th Gen CPU stability issues, calling out motherboard makers for not following recommended settings. Intel Says 14th & 13th Gen CPU Stability Issues Are Due To Motherboard & System Makers Not Following Their Recommended Settings The update comes several months after it was reported that Intel's 14th & 13th Gen CPUs have a really bad stability problem in several gaming applications. The issue was later discovered to be a problem caused by the CPUs being pushed way too hard from unlimited power limits and thermal profiles. These settings were […]
