Hi Intel Support Team,

I bought a PC with an i9-14900K, GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS MASTER, RTX 4070ti, and THERMALRIGHT AQUA ELITE 360 V3 ARGB AIO.

It suddenly crashes with a blue screen and freezes.

Thank you for the quick response.

My engineer resolved the issue; it was processor overheating. He controlled temperatures by underclocking. Now, it's working fine with a slight performance decrease.

Hello Mahibur, 

 

Thanks for the confirmation. I understand you had to underclock your processor to be able to fix the crashes and blue screen of death issues you had. I will proceed to close this thread, however, you can open a new one in case you need further support or if you face any issues with our products.

 

Please keep in mind that this thread will no longer be monitored by Intel.

Hi,

I have the same Processor i9-14900k, and Brand new opened from box.

It keeps crashing with BSOD, while booting. If boots ok, it crashed after some time.

I have Liquid Cooling System, and temperature is normal.

Why does this must need to underclock to work without BSOD?

Power Supply : Corsair 1000W,

RAM : Corsair DDR5

Motherboard : PRIME Z790-P-CSM (Bios Ver. 1604)
