11th gen core i9-11900k clock watchdog timeout error

I keep getting clock watchdog timeout error.


I have tried multiple things like checking each devices update manually, tried the Processor Diagnostic Tool, retarted the bios to default... Everything I could find until I found a post here so, It´s my last resourse, I saw they asked the "ticket" from the Intel System Support Utility for Windows so here it is, the blue screen happens when system is on heavy loads.  Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated.

For starters, I would be checking whether there are any BIOS updates available.
Next is memory. Most times when there is a watchdog firing issue, it is because a memory bus has locked up. This can be caused by (in order of commonality) incompatible memory, bad memory or a failure in the processor's memory controllers.
Hope this helps,
