PC owners worldwide have for the last several months endured stability issues related to several Intel 13th- and 14th-gen processors. Further investigation attributed the issues to the BIOS settings used by many Intel motherboard partners, which use "optimized" settings ignoring Intel's default maximum power limits.

This week, Gigabyte and MSI joined Asus in providing additional BIOS versions and configurations aimed at alleviating these issues and adhering to Intel's power specifications.

We're advising all customers to update to the latest BIOS versions for your mainboards released after April 20th, 2024, even if you are not experiencing any issues currently to help prevent possible damage to your processors in the future.

If you're unsure on how to do this, please visit us instore so we can do this for you. This service will be free of charge for any intel-based 13th or 14th Gen systems purchased from us since November 2022. 

Thank you.
