I9-14900k keeps crashing and giving me BSODs

[Somedudechen]

Hi,

I have had issues with my processor since the day I got it. I constantly have a variety of different errors come up when the computer BSODs. For some time it was stable, but today it seems to have returned to a constant state of crashing. I use the Intel Xtreme Tuning tool to reduce the P-Core ratio and it seemed to work for some time, but now the application won’t even open and it just immediately turns off the computer and/or BSODs. I can’t even go on google because it constantly gives me status access violations, and I know it’s not my RAM, because I have checked it multiple times and they’re both fine. I don’t really know what to do. I can try to post my mini dumps here but I’d have to see if my pc allows me to get on google and actually upload these files.

Specs:
CPU: I9-14900k
GPU: GeForce RTX 3070
Motherboard: Z790 Gaming Plus WiFi
RAM: 2x16 GB CORSAIR Dominator Platinum RGB (CMT32GX5M2B6400C32)
Cooler: NZXT Kraken Z63
PSU: Corsair RM750x 80+ Gold
