News and articles for the Intel Core i7-12700KF and the Intel Core i7-13700KF
Intel Microcode 0x129 Update increases the voltage and cpu temperature on my i5-13600K!
Posted by Stefan on 2024-09-09
I would like to share my experiences with the latest Intel microcode update (0x129) with you. After updating to the latest BIOS version of my mainboard, not only was the latest microcode active, but the BIOS now has an Intel Baseline Profile, which sets or limits certain voltage and power supply settings in the BIOS. I compare the results with the older microcode 0x104, which still can also be set in the new BIOS.
How to check if your Intel 13/14 gen cpu is affected by instability problems
Posted by Stefan on 2024-08-02
Maybe you have heard of problems with Intels Raptor Lake CPUs (13/14 Gen Intel Core i) that have degradation problems due to high voltage and therefore can crash in some situations like gaming. We show you an easy way to check if your cpu is affected by using Intels own Processor Diagnostic Tool.
