Hi Guys,
Here is my build:
ROG Strix Z390-H
i9-9900K
Corsair H100i liquid cooler
Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200
ASUS ROG Strix OC Nvidia RTX 2080
Samsung 970 EVO 2TB
I built the system last weekend and flashed the latest BIOS (1202) on the board. When I use the AI overclocking feature in
the BIOS (choose gaming and liquid cooling), the BIOS overclocks the CPU and memory to about 20%, and I save the settings
and reboot.
Unfortunately, when i use the system (play fornite at high settings). I will get the occasional BSOD with the message (clock watchdog timeout).
This error seems to indicate some system instability.
I know the motherboard includes a jumper (CPU overvoltage jumper) to raise the CPU voltage. Should I enable this jumper setting? Is it possible
the CPU doesn't have enough voltage to operate with this overclocking setting?
I also read up on the fact that these boards have a somewhat basic VRM 4 phase (split 8phase) power stage, although I don't know if that's relevant.
Anyways, if anyone has experience with this setup and has had these issues or knows what to do, I would appreciate any assistance.
Thanks,
Steve
