Crashing every round/game in CS2 with i9-14900k and RTX 4090, any solution?

[ElRuso]

I have uninstalled everything to try only with steam and CS and neither.

I found the problem. For 13900k it's temperature, reach 100 deg C, and closing the game automatically. Just reduce freq for processor, and temp. Will be around 65. Same fps, nothing change, just working.

We have the same specs, I crashed everyday on this with this error:

All my hardware or software is just fine after spending 10s of hours trying to figure this damn thing out. From what I'm reading, to help resolve an issue to play this game would be to lower my frequency configuration on my RAM and CPU, no thanks rofl! I really enjoy this game, and it sucks that Minecraft plays extremely well on my setup better than CS2 does, bring back CSGO!!!

My problem is exactly "Crashing every round/game in CS2 with i9-14900k and RTX 4090"

always crash from ram and makes everything crash on my system , but the ram is OK at first apparel, where will the setting be applied ?

Has to do with for example XMP profile.
So go to the bios and put it lower by 200 at the time until you notice no crashes anymore.
I just lowered it like 200 under default speeds and it solved everything, been playing without crashes since.

Thank u! I will try 6800xmp, i used to be 7000 for oc now I'm giving up oc. Oc is unstable asf

glad I'm not alone with this ♥♥♥♥.

Better yet, run your CPU undervolted and set power limit to match your cooling solution's performance.

For example I have 13700K and I run it ~100mV undervolted and I have set power limit to 200W so my Noctua can still keep up. There might also be a problem with your cooling / thermal paste. No game should ever cause your CPU to reach stupid high temperatures. Synthetic loads are different like prime95, Cinebench etc.

Intel's 13th-14th gen CPUs have ridiculously high TDP. They can eat ~250+ watts. Air coolers pretty much can't keep up with that. And even with water cooling the temperatures will be high af. The last 50 watts are "empty". You get ~15c more heat but performance is ~1% better, so set power limits.

EDIT: Not all chips are made equally. Mine can take -100mV but it doesn't mean every CPU behaves the same. I'd start from -50mV reducing the voltage -5mV at the time. When you reach a threshold where your PC becomes unstable, add +10mV and stop there.

EDIT 2: Always check and test your undervolted CPU's stability with synthetic loads. Prime95 is pretty simple and good tool for this.

If you have FPS set to max 400 by default , ofcourse you will crash , because CPU will overheat . Set FPS cap little above your monitor Hz .
In my case 143 Hz - I set 160 FPS cap , not a single crash ever . Lag is a different story btw ...
Also someone posted that latest Nvidia driver is bad ,try to roll back to previous .

Even uncapped fps won't grill your CPU if your PC is configured properly to match your cooling solution. Assuming there is no other problems. And like I said, undervolting 13-14th gen intels is almost mandatory. It's the new meta.

I have the actual solution.
After doing some digging I found that in 13 and 14 series intel CPUs, its very common for the BIOS to not have the correct power limits for the cpu set.

The solution is as follows:
Boot into your BIOS.
Set all power limits in watts to 253, this is the maximum supported by the CPU.
Set current limit to 307 amps, this is the maximum supported by the CPU.

You will likely find that in your BIOS prior to this change, the wattage will be at 4096 and the ampage at 512, this is just the automatic/maximum the motherboard can supply. Not doing this is also slowing killing your processor over time. I'd be willing to bet that things like Discord are also crashing along side CS at random points, this is why.

Correct, except the CPU will only draw as much power as your voltage and thermal allows.
Where did you get 307 amps? It depends on the voltage. Higher voltage, more current draw and vice versa. V=IR

just try verifying game and clear cash from seam overlay its help you

Writing -vulkan in the start options helped for me.
Or start the Windows Power Shell as admin and enter these commands one after the other.


dir "$env:systemroot\system32\driverstore\filerepository\*NvCameraEnable.exe" -rec |% {& "$_" off}

dir "$env:programfiles\nvidia corporation\*NvCameraEnable.exe" -rec |% {& "$_" off}

Try lowering your graphic settings. My friend was crashing constantly and it helped him, he has a 14700k or 14900k paired with DDR5 and a 3080Ti. Maybe see if you're running the latest BIOS for your motherboard, seeing as your hardware is brand new. May try lowering your RAM speed a notch as suggested below as well.

Try settings:

4xMSAA
Global Shadow Quality-High
Partical Detail-Low
Ambient Occlusion-Medium
NVIDIA Reflex-Enabled

Also, maybe try setting launch options- -high +cl_forcepreload

cl_forcepreload its not valid removed long time ago , but there is preload, but also its worse for the game -high will put priority to process - crash other things if ram problems

I cant thank you enough i upgraded to intel 14900k i even sold my 3090 and bought 4090 thinking it was that but nope you where right.

[noob king]

Have you tried underclocking / undervolting the CPU? I’ve been struggling with the same issues. Crashes straight to desktop.

149000K
RTX 3080
96GB DDR-5
