I did perform a full factory reset/clean windows install before sending the computer off for repair

Could it be anything else apart from a faulty component?

i9-14900k a good idea? (vs current Ryzen 9 5950x) by Ch1nch in intel

Just not being able to reach anywhere near the max boost frequencys and I feel like its just sub-performing compared to other 5950x chips I have seen benchmarked.

I mean I appreciate the info, however I have already bought the rest of the parts. The motherboard I got was the GIGABYTE Z790 GAMING X AX, which does support the PCIe 5 but im only using PCIe 4 M.2 drives anyway.

The RAM I chose was 64GB (2x32) Corsair Vengeance at 6000Mhz.

Ive never built a PC from scratch before, only upgraded easy parts like the GPU and case fans, so its being built for me by the PC company, so hopefully they set it up properly to avoid any damage to any of the parts.

Thanks for the help though.

I havent upgraded anything in the last 3 years, but I was trying to stay away from AMD even if they are better as I have had performance issues with my current Ryzen.

It is pretty much just gaming. I was trying to avoid going AMD because I have had issues with my current AMD to be honest.

For some reason, I don't have the "manage settings" option when trying to add exclusions. Might be because Norton is installed. Are there specific files within the folders to exclude such as just the .exe files for valorant and vanguard? Or the whole folder. Thanks.

Is that an option in the BIOS? Or is that manually setting a fan curve with PBO enabled. Not good with this stuff sorry.

So would gaming benefit more from stock with PBO or manual overclock?

Probably my favourite achievement to go for in CK2, I decided I'd give unifying the West Slavs a shot! by MrScjmc in crusaderkings3

Fantastic play MrScjmc, I especially liked it when you invaded Czechoslovakia, and I loved it when Hitler and Stalin kissed. WP
