Hello, your i7 9700K is running smoothly at 5.2ghz with stable temperatures, but you're experiencing BSODs and crashes despite normal temps. You adjusted the case fans to RGB for aesthetics, which seems to help with cooling. After restarting the CPU to 5.0ghz and LLC 7, everything stabilized. This behavior is unusual but not uncommon—some systems predict overheating and shut down proactively. It’s possible the BIOS or firmware is detecting a risk, even if temperatures are within limits. Consider checking for updates or consulting your motherboard manual for overheating protection settings.

You're checking the CPU temperatures—do you see the core temperature or an average? There might be other factors at play, like overcurrent. Not sure what's causing it.

Hmm... It seems like you might be missing the latest configurations. I haven't worked with the 9th generation systems before. My background is mainly with older models like the Z77, and I recently switched to the X570 and 3600X.
