Thats just a small problem. Oxidation is what causes the final 100% CPU failure. Which means the CPU will be unstable after months of use. No matter what. Its kinda like running a car without oil. It ruins itself.
I think it will help, but when they have to lower the voltages than they also probably have to lower the clock. That means the processor will be getting slower.
Probably because there is also an oxidation issue that is a hardware level defect and it's unclear (at least to me) exactly which CPUs it effects and if it can be mitigated at all outside of a physical replacement. Not sure why this isn't mentioned here in the video as it really should be.
My first proper Desktop PC will be all AMD too, very unhappy with NVIDIA, their features are great when they work but in less than 10 months of buying my laptop (R7 7840HS with RTX 4060) the Dedicated Graphics started dying and is basically bricked and now it’s in for Warranty. Last time I tried playing Cyberpunk the GPU was so fucked it was single digit fps 😢
Thats what cpu i got rn. I got it paired with 32gb ram and a 4070 super. Plays everything i throw at it with pretty low temps (i use an air cooler). Hits pretty much every game at 1440p (165hz monitor) at the frame limit or around 140 for heavier games

The update came out about 10 days ago and many motherboard manufacturers had bios updates out within a few days for microcode 0x129, which should fix the elevated voltage issue. I updated mine yesterday. Another separate issue was fixed in the previous update as well. However, this voltage has caused persistent damage, slowly over time. This update will NOT reverse the existing damage that has been done to CPUs, it will only prevent future damage. If your CPU is crashing because of this issue, the damage is already beyond repair, and you will need to replace your CPU. Intel has extended their warranty for chips that have been affected.
how does that make sense? if people already purchased a new cpu and had this issue why would they put them on sale after its already been purchased? this would only be good for people who are not yet customers of newer gen cpus lol
Remember, socket 1700 is End of Life for this line of CPUs, 14th Gen is the last on it. You really think Intel is going to bother re-starting a production line for making warranty replacement chips? Especially with all the layoffs, stock price in the toilet and other cost cutting? Buy a 12th gen while you can and undervolt, turn off XMP and clock down.

If they dont fix it soon, ill be building with amd for the first time. Going on 9or10 years on my current pc. Though it still works great, looking to be able to play on 4k in the near future
Let’s say they drop a real fix in mid August. It doesn’t fix the damage that’s already been done inside those affected CPUs. The voltage issue burned out components and once burned they are done. So basically they will send a fix and nothing more to address the multitudes of people who now have CPUs with erectile dysfunction. All those impacted will have dead CPUs sooner than they should
And when the patch does come out mid-august, you most likely will have to update your motherboard bios to get it fixed if your p.C.Is already having problems with 13th 14 Gen.Crashing it is already too late. Little capacitors that are on the chip are broken Only thing you can do if it's not crashing already Is undervolt your CPU before it's too late. Maybe 1.4 volts
The microcode update didn't fix it. I still have the same issue. The issue is that they physically can't fix overvolting and killing the diodes. They just need to make better chips that can handle that voltage. The reason they don't do this is because they don't want to recall 50 million cpus.
Once the CPU has issues it can‘t be fixed by that update. I myself RMA my one (same issue) and run it with the new update from beginning ..or i wait for Arrow Lake, get my money back and buy the new generation.
Did you miss that day admitted they had a corrosion problem on there Reddit thread? Gamers Nexus mentioned that.... You're like the third person that I've heard talk about that without mentioning the corrosion....
@@unrenownedc Corrosion is absolutely the main problem. It shows there's something wrong with the CPU at a hardware level, critical enough to be causing physical degradation. That's something that can't be fixed, it will continue degrading and only cause more issues in the future until inevitable critical failure. Software updates are merely a temporary fix to improve stability, it doesn't fix the root cause behind these sudden problems, which could easily take several more months to pinpoint - already took that long considering Intel knew of the issue as far back as 2023 but didn't release any fix sooner.
I kind of have a hard time seeing myself trusting Intel in the next few years when they knew about oxidation problem, never acknowledge it until media pressure them... It is probably true that it is not the root cause of the current issue and that the voltage is, but how can you trust someone who could have refused RMA requests for month for an issue they knew about. So good news for owner of 13th and 14th gen they will address the voltage issue but I am not buying Intel for a bit.
This wont actually fix any broken or decaying CPU's, it'll only prevent further damage, there's also the oxidization issue which can only be fixed with a recall.
They didnt find shit, some guy spent a few hundo on getting his streaming pc fixed and told his audience all about it. The voltage issue had been determined ages ago by not intel.
Yea... Im gonna build another AMD CPU build for my next PC in the future. Now just debating if I stick with Nvidia or cop up for AMD, depends on what's available and what price are they at the time.
It is not entirely correct. Intel said that lowering the voltages helped to have fewer failures but that patch with microcode was not the solution, only a temporary patch. The problem is not software, it is HARDWARE. The processors have manufacturing oxidation issues and is not fixed with software patch.
Phew, I'm just glad it has nothing to do with motherboard manufacturers pushing the processors beyond intel recommended power limits with stock bios settings

Not finally. They knwe it from the end of 2023 IIRC, but were too afraid of the consequences of alerting for a problem that most vould porbably not notice.
If anyone has an affected CPU, I reckon your best bet is to not overclock it at all until the issue is properly fixed, if ever. Just seems like the safest course of action. If you really need to overclock a 14900K, perhaps you need to look into going the Xeon route, or something. Just my humble thoughts.
This patch will only prevent further damage to the CPU if you already have errors it's because your CPU suffered permanent damage from high voltage or oxidation.
Interesting PR coming from you. Just "figured it out" huh? Or did they just decide to come clean? I think it's more the latter, less the former. And you mean they addressed it by "figuring out the cause"? Nope. To address it, replace all of your defective CPU's, for FREE.
So that's why my PC blue-screens while I had "Game Boost" turned on in the BIOS of my MSI motherboard. Well, I knew 1.2v was good enough for me, so I turned "Game Boost" off once I realized it was pushing higher volts.
Hopefully they don't push the fix on a Friday. We all know what happened the last time. Give the IT guys a break, they ain't ready for a second sprint.

good news Intel Figured out... after 2 years ?! hahahah
This patch will only prevent further damage to the CPU if you already have errors it's because your CPU suffered permanent damage from high voltage or oxidation.
Interesting PR coming from you. Just "figured it out" huh? Or did they just decide to come clean? I think it's more the latter, less the former.
And you mean they addressed it by "figuring out the cause"? Nope. To address it, replace all of your defective CPU's, for FREE.
Imagine buying an intel cpu in 2024
The mobos weren’t running to much voltage they didn’t have enough jayztwocents explains this but they are still unstable. It won’t fix it…
Look the INTEL REDDIT is not just an voltage problem in the bios.
Shots fired. Get ready for the epic games community. :D
Bro I'm so glad I just switched to amd
1 stick with my 12 gen i9 its the beast at work
So that's why my PC blue-screens while I had "Game Boost" turned on in the BIOS of my MSI motherboard.
Well, I knew 1.2v was good enough for me, so I turned "Game Boost" off once I realized it was pushing higher volts.
Hopefully they don't push the fix on a Friday. We all know what happened the last time. Give the IT guys a break, they ain't ready for a second sprint.
So basically, they're undervolting the CPUs
What kinds of issues are people having? I’ve had a 13700k for 6 months and have not had any issues
They just like to hate for no reason
