nice to see the updated microcode

Please see below:
 
According to the guidelines of Intel Default settings, the BIOS configurations are adjusted as follows:

1. CEP(Current Excursion Protection) -> Enable
2. eTVB(Enhanced Thermal Velocity Boost) -> Enable
3. TVB(Thermal Velocity Boost) -> Enable
4. TVB Votage Optimizations -> Enable
5. ICCMAX Unlimited Bit -> Disable
6. C-states -> Enable
7. TjMAX Offset -> 0
8. Unlimited ICCMAX - Disabled
9. Long Duration Package Power Limit(PL1) - Auto
10. Short Duration Package Power Limit(PL2) - Auto

Adjustment:

• The 1-7 parameters follow Intel Default Settings; users can adjust the values manually.
• The 8-10 parameters follow values from below CPU mapping table, users can adjust the values manually but cannot exceed the highest value limits of the mapping table linked below (When the Intel Default Settings is Enabled).

Please take note that even though you can change the settings listed below the Intel Default Settings, those settings will not go into effect until you turn off the Intel Default Settings option, then save and exit.

Can you specify exactly which settings below are ignored when Intel default settings is enabled?

Thanks!

Intel released 0x12B Microcode.

Hi Chris,

Thank you so much for this. I just read that Intel is releasing yet another patch to cover other scenarios that can result in damaged CPUs.

From the Engadget.com website dated 9/26/24 at 08:00…
“ The latest microcode patch it has released, codenamed 0x12B, addresses the fourth scenario. Apparently, the processors could make elevated core voltage requests during light activity or while the computer is idle. Intel has distributed this patch to motherboard manufacturers, since it has to be loaded as a BIOS update. The company is already working with its partners, but it could still take several weeks for the manufacturers to roll out the fix to its products.”


Would you please look into getting another BIOS update? It would be very much appreciated.


Thank you.

This!

Yes this 0x12B is the latest ver from intel, it will fix perfectly for 0x125 and 0x129 and would like EVGA will update it soon !
Thank you!

@EVGATech_ChrisB is your BIOS team already cooking new BIOS with 0x12B MCU?

We are looking into this and will update the community as soon as we can.

It looks like the "Extreme" power delivery profile isn't applying correctly. I'm on a i9 13900KS and it's only pulling 253w max with the Intel Defaults.
