Intel 13th & 14th Gen CPU Crash "Out of Video Memory": Microcode 0x12B Fix
Why Core i9-13900K and i9-14900K CPUs crash with "Out of Video Memory" while compiling shaders in Unreal Engine games. Flash latest 0x12B microcode and enforce Intel Default Profile.
The Deceptive "Out of Video Memory" Bug on Intel Core i9
When compiling shaders via Oodle Data compression in games like The Last of Us Part I or Tekken 8, elevated voltage requests can cause instability on Raptor Lake CPUs, masquerading as a GPU memory fault.
Flash your motherboard BIOS to the latest version containing Intel Microcode 0x12B and ensure Intel Default Settings (PL1/PL2 253W) is selected rather than motherboard vendor Extreme profiles.
