Major Lee Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 There seems to be a stability issue regarding Intel 13/14 gen CPUs running UnReal engined games, leading to CTD or error messages. Undervolting seems to help. Lots of info regarding this issue is out there. Only seems to be affecting the very top tier Intel CPUs... 🤔 The Verge Intel Game Crash.  2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unreal simply has to work with the latest processors. Won't affect us long-term I am sure. We haven't had any issues so far.

Jason Sounds like this is more of a hardware/bios settings issue than an UnReal Engine issue. https://www.pcgamer.com/there-are-increased-reports-of-crashing-in-unreal-engine-games-etc-and-epic-is-blaming-intel-chips/#:~:text=Because this isn't a software issue%2C your only,for the P-cores down a notch or two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the gold release of the first campaign the latest intel CPU will be two generations ahead anyway, and the Unreal Engine will also go through some revisions/updates, so I do not see this as an issue as long as like Jason mentions, it does not affect the dev team in the development phase and I would add the early access phase players, which by definition is not gold but say maybe wood at this point 😄  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aapje Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 It's not a software issue. This happens when you put a big load on the CPU and happens in Cinebench as well. Basically, many motherboards are running out of spec, sending more watts to the CPU that they should. And Intel may also be partly to blame, as they try to keep up with AMD, despite being behind in their manufacturing process, by pushing their CPUs to or even beyond the limit.

Major Lee Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 https://www.gigabyte.com/Press/News/2156  Gigabyte has issued a bios update that properly limits voltage and speeds on top tier intel CPUs. ASUS has done the same. Who would have that unrestricted power flow to a CPU would be a bad thing?? 🤪 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
