Intel Addresses Stability Issues in Latest CPUs, Urges Caution with BIOS Settings

Intel has called on motherboard manufacturers to adhere to recommended BIOS settings to prevent instability in its 13th and 14th Gen processors.

Intel has observed instability issues primarily in systems with unlocked and overclockable motherboards, leading to crashes and other problems.
The company has identified overly aggressive BIOS settings on some high-end motherboards as a key factor in these issues.
Intel recommends that motherboard makers use its default BIOS profiles and add warnings for performance-enhancing settings that could destabilize systems.
Several motherboard manufacturers, including ASUS and MSI, have already issued BIOS updates to address these stability concerns.
Intel plans to make a public announcement with further findings and recommendations in May 2024.
