Intel has discovered a bug in the eTVB microcode that may contribute to the instability of unlocked processors

Intel still has pending a longer explanation of the cause of instability problem on Intel 13 and 14 Gen processors. This instability has been known to be caused by offering a turbo voltage and speed beyond the manufacturer’s recommendations, but did not end up revealing what caused and allowed overcome these limits. According to Igor’s Lab and the leaked documents, this is due to a eTVB microcode bug.

According to these documents, the problem is in a faulty value in the eTVB microcode, which offers improved boost speed. But Intel has denied that this is the problem root to the instability problems of its processors. Fortunately Intel already has patch available which solves this problem in the microcode, the patch version 0x125 That will add in the next updates for the motherboards so we can correct it. On the other hand, instability is present in all unlocked processors, while eTVB is only present in Intel Core i9.

Intel has not recognized this small bug as the root of the problem and continues to investigate reports received from users and that are present beyond the Intel Core i9 that this eTVB technology affects. According to the manufacturer, this patch fixes a bug that has been detected precisely while investigation continues What is the root of the problem, although this failure also can contribute to this instability.

We wait know more news about this problem soon.
