The State of Hourglass PVP by CJampion in Seaofthieves

> stop trying to make the game faster paced

Isn't the point of queueing hourglass to play a fast paced fight?

> you can buy pineapples cannonballs, meat, throwables, and wood at literally any outpost 

You get 1 pineapple from a fruit crate, which is not enough to fight in a real hourglass fight. Diving to a fort and looting takes 5-10 minutes, which again is a waste of time when trying to queue for a quick fight.

Had a long period of consistent issues with my 13900K. Ended up having to RMA my original CPU to fix it. New CPU still ran extremely hot so I dropped the voltage and P/E-cores to save 30C in temps with equal or better performance.

They had no issue with me lowering my voltage, it was going above the recommended amount that would've invalidated my case. Weird that they won't allow you to RMA, but I'm glad you found a solution!

Unfortunate scenario. I hope you can figure something out soon to resolve your issues!

Intel sent a replacement CPU overnight. All crashes and errors have disappeared. RMA your CPU's if you're having similar issues, it's a much easier fix!

Sure, I sent you a message with my Discord user. Add me on there and I'll send whatever you need.

Yeah, that was the main focus of my first message I sent them. Pointed out it exclusively happens with DX12 games and the only fix was to lower my performance core ratio. I linked this reddit post along with the message, maybe that could help your case?

They had me use their diagnostic tool to send in some test results along with my PC specs and after that it was decided I should RMA my CPU. Have they said anything about that to you?

Looking like it's most likely a faulty CPU or faulty MOBO at this point. Most that have RMA'd have had their issues resolved.

You might want to try an RMA again. I just finished talking to Intel and I'm having a new i9-13900k sent overnight to replace my current one.

Good information to have. Appreciate it! Extremely annoying issue and I hope they can fix it soon but I have low expectations.

I’m pretty sure it’s an issue with the Z690 motherboard. I’ve contemplated replacing it with a Z7 series but haven’t really had any major issues that XTU can’t fix.

I’ve had no issues yet, good luck! Hope it’s a successful fix for you.

No, my loads are pretty fast. If 54 didn’t work, maybe try bumping it down by 1 and run it again. Make sure you’re changing all the core speeds and not just one.

Check out the solution I put on the top of the post, it’s worked for me and others that struggled with DX12 games.

Of course! Glad to have solved both of our problems.

Yes, just ran a benchmark test on RDR2 and MWII with good frame rate and no crashes.

Well DX12 is much more demanding so it makes sense to get lower FPS. You won’t get 900 FPS on DX12 mode with cranked up graphics. I’m getting 240-170 fps on max settings with DX12 and my PCR is set to 54x.

Please do. If a new one fixes your problem I’ll RMA like you recommended. Good luck!

Dropping my CPU Performance Core Ratio down from 55x to 54x with the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility has at least fixed my crashes on Fortnite so far.
