Intel CPUs are known to exhibit issues if they draw more power than specified, especially when overclocked or under heavy load. https://www.reddit.com/r/intel/comments/17wcr1p/comment/k9gsrg6/ https://www.reddit.com/r/GamersNexus/comments/1f40n9k/my_second_14900k_is_showing_instability_despite https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/i9-14900k-instability-and-crashes.3882378 My suggestions: • First, make sure your BIOS is updated to the latest version to reduce the risk of such problems, and use the default BIOS settings, as much as possible. • Then, try an upgrade to the latest Linux kernel — use version 6.16 from the trixie-backports repository (Debian 13). • Also, make sure you have the latest package intel-microcode installed from Debian. If the issue persists, fiddle around with the related BIOS settings: • Disable “Enhanced Turbo” or similar aggressive default settings if enabled • PL2 or PL1 to maximum of 253 W. • LLC to "Mode 7" Finally, ask ChatGPT or your AI of choice. :-) Best regards, Klaus. -- Klaus Singvogel GnuPG-Key-ID: 1024R/5068792D 1994-06-27
