A tester from Chiphell found significant stability issues with Intel's Core i9-14900K and 13900K CPUs, revealing that only a small percentage of these processors remain stable under "AUTO" profile settings. The issues appear to be linked to how motherboard BIOS settings push the CPUs beyond Intel's baseline power profiles, affecting their performance and stability. Despite numerous tests and the involvement of various motherboard models, neither Intel nor the board partners have pinpointed the exact cause of these stability problems.
