it keeps crushing

Can you make sense from it? I can't even open a game now.

My specs:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900KF
96 Gb RAM, RTX 4090
Win 11 Pro, updated

Have you tried deleting the shader cache?

[L O F T Y]

That's a dying 14900 issue. If you see errors in compression/ decompression you have a 14900 with the oxidizing inside, RMA with Intel

Edit: the official announcement by Oodle https://www.radgametools.com/oodleintel.htm

Yes, it's still crushing.

Did you upgrade your BIOS which was required for that CPU.

I FIXED IT

This is what I ended up doing in my BIOS (Motherboard Gigabyte Z790 UD AX) and again, my CPU i9-14900KF (adjust values to your own and your choice):

Package Power Limit1 - TDP (Watts) > 253 (Holy grail, page 98, table 17, 8P+16E Core 125W Extreme Config)

Package Power Limit1 Time > 56 (Holy grail, page 98, table 17, 8P+16E Core 125W Extreme Config)

Package Power Limit2 - (Watts) > 253 (Holy grail, page 98, table 17, 8P+16E Core 125W Extreme Config)

Core Current Limit(Amps) > 307 (Holy grail, page 184, table 77, S-Processor Line (125W) 8P+16E)

Enhanced Multi-Core Performance > Disabled (OP recommendation)

Performance CPU Clock Ratio > 57 (I mentioned I changed this to 56x using XTU, but OP told me to go back to 57 when doing the changes above)

Extreme Memory Profile(X.M.P.) > XMP 1

And ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ worked flawlessly.

Restart PC, Windows is famous for memory fragmentation. Restart your PC at least every 7 days. A COLD boot.

The game not even enter just show this msg from Ureal Engine 5:

He literally stated above he already fixed it lol

Now update your motherboard BIOS so your CPU doesn't die.

[regardicus longus]

just deleting the shaders folder helped me

BIOS has updated the Intel 0x12B microcode, but it still continues to crash. If the power plan of Win11 is changed to energy-saving, it can prevent crashes and ensure stable operation. Does anyone know the reason

Assuming you didn't undo the stability fixes from those BIOS updates by overclocking the CPU manually and you cool the power hog of a CPU adequately, it means it is unstable even under proper in-spec settings under nominal load.

Which means you should RMA the unit since it is defective. Intel had to cover up these cases with extended warranty for almost all desktop Raptor Lake and Raptor Lake Refresh SKUs:
https://community.intel.com/t5/Processors/Additional-Warranty-Updates-on-Intel-Core-13th-14th-Gen-Desktop/m-p/1620853

You can use number of workarounds to lower the chances to trigger instabilities (underclock, lower power state, etc.) but at that point you wasted a lot of money on a product that you can't even fully utilize anymore.
