Chances are it's over 3+ years old and you build a new system.
Every ASUS board I have owned in the last 20 years hasn't failed, I also don't get the cheapest nor the most expensive one. I can't say the same for Gigabyte or MSI those I don't have luck with.
Update to this. Last response from Intel:
So basically Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, ect... are/were undervolting the 13 and 14th gen CPUs? And says that 1.6Vcore is normal.
To give the story on my issue and what intel has sent.
On 4/8/2024 I opened a ticket at Intel stating:
On 4/12/2024 after no response from Intel:
They responded a few hours later:
Now I was a bit puzzled, but I tried and it passed just fine, besides the fact that Cinebench gave me a 27,394...
I personally ran into issues on my 13900k, had to run intel fail safe which gives the CPU 1.6v for it to be stable. I had the PL1/2 set to 300w since day one as well.
Swapped to a 14900k and the system is stable again but intel is giving me the run around to get it replaced.
Ill have to try.
I like CS2 but It's no where as good as CS1 with the mods, the last few nights is "fix traffic sim 2" I made some headway with mods, if TPME was available I'm sure I could fix it.
200k Pop on my city and I see 80-100% CPU usage on a 14900k. FPS has been fine. I have a server...
