hi all,
I encounter a weird problem with my new rig setup and is annoying
my setup:
cpu i7 7820x with used AIO Corsair H115i-is not new,is second hand
RAm: 24 Gb
video: R9 Fury X
mobo:Asus Strix x299 E-Gaming
power supply: 750w Intertech Argus GOLD
Every time when i Enable Turbo mode in Bios, periodically my system become unstable and i have BSOD with next error: Whea uncorectable error 124-GenuineIntel.sys
.So this error is from proccesor for sure,so i checked stability and health of my CPU with Intel diagnostic program,but all test are fine,he PASSED without problem.
If i disable Turbo mode from BIOS,i have NO more BSOD problem anymore,but in Device manager it show me i must activate.
This whea 124 error is just because my CPU is overhiting,or i must made DELIDED for him,or my used AIO Corsair H115i is not good?
The funny things,is i checked temperature with Real Temp,and when i receive this bsod it's always when i browsing in Opera and it never goes over 40-45 degree.When i play light game like Diablo 3 for example, i never have this bsod 124 error,
I don't understand this WEIRD BEHAVIOR.Another weird thing, ichecked my temperature in idle mode and for example now i have 19-23 degree and over 1 second it goes to29-36 degree.It is posible to thermal degree is not good?I applied Arctic Mx-4
It's possible even my CPU PASS the IntelDiagnostic test,to have HIDDEN PROBLEM under the Turbo mode and is a defective CPU?
I must DELID the processor for TurboMode,or is not necessary?
I was so haping with my new rig until now when i encounter this problem.......
I never manualy overclocking any voltages in BIOS,i always let on AUTO
thanks in advance for any sugestion if u have,

WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (124)
A fatal hardware error has occurred. Parameter 1 identifies the type of error
source that reported the error. Parameter 2 holds the address of the
nt!_WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure that describes the error condition. Try !errrec Address of the nt!_WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure to get more details.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000000, Machine Check Exception
Arg2: ffffb90fe5703028, Address of the nt!_WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure.
Arg3: 00000000b2000000, High order 32-bits of the MCi_STATUS value.
Arg4: 0000000000070005, Low order 32-bits of the MCi_STATUS value.
Debugging Details:
------------------
*
*
*
Either you specified an unqualified symbol, or your debugger *
doesn't have full symbol information. Unqualified symbol *
resolution is turned off by default. Please either specify a *
fully qualified symbol module!symbolname, or enable resolution *
of unqualified symbols by typing ".symopt- 100". Note that *
enabling unqualified symbol resolution with network symbol *
server shares in the symbol path may cause the debugger to *
appear to hang for long periods of time when an incorrect *
symbol name is typed or the network symbol server is down. *
*
For some commands to work properly, your symbol path *
must point to .pdb files that have full type information. *
*
Certain .pdb files (such as the public OS symbols) do not *
contain the required information. Contact the group that *
provided you with these symbols if you need this command to *

What is the actual performance of the Inter Tech Argus model you mentioned? Many reviews say it's decent, but not ideal for serious PC users. I'm looking for your thoughts on this specific PSU: https://inter-tech.de/en/products/psu/at...750w-cm-ii which provides 750W.

I modify the BIOS settings:
CPU Core ratio set to Auto
AI Overclocker Tuner set to Auto
When I see BSOD with Turbo Mode enabled, the CPU core ratio was adjusted to By Core usage. Interestingly, when I load default BIOS settings, it automatically chooses By Core Usage instead of Auto, and with Core Usage settings, AVX is set to 4500MHz, AVX 512 to 4500MHz, and Turbo mode remains at 4500MHz. With AUTO settings, AVX is automatically adjusted to 3800MHz and AVX 512 to 3600MHz, eliminating BSODs.
From yesterday until now, I haven’t experienced any more BSODs. My CPU is stable now... but I’m not entirely confident yet that the BSOD will return. The main concern is that my CPU tends to get hot and isn’t at its peak temperature yet. In idle mode with Corsair H115i, it reaches 30-35°C, sometimes rising to 40°C. That’s too high for idle.
Also, I’m using Arctic MX-4 on the CPU. If I switch to Arctic Silver 5 or Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme, would that be better for handling this hot CPU (7820x)?
