Motherboard makers apparently to blame for high-end Intel Core i9 CPU failures | Motherboard makers "disable thermal and power delivery safeguards" by default
Motherboard makers "disable thermal and power delivery safeguards" by default.
"Intel has observed 600/700 Series chipset boards often set BIOS defaults to disable thermal and power delivery safeguards designed to limit processor exposure to sustained periods of high voltage and frequency." Advertisement As we reported previously, the problems primarily affect high-end unlocked Core i9 CPUs like the i9-13900K and i9-14900K, as well as KF and KS variants of the same processors. If it is, we should know more about the company's recommendations for safe power settings sometime next month, and we'll hopefully see new BIOS releases from the motherboard manufacturers that reinstate some of Intel's safeguards for these high-end chips.
