0c Temp Reading, Fixed with MC 0x1F

[ezflma]

@Martin (and anyone else), it looks like Intel finally corrected the 0c temp sensor bug with microcode 0x1F. I'm running an MSI Z690 Edge WiFi DDR4 with an i9-12900K. This microcode revision was added to my MB's support site on MSI with the main feature of enabling i9-12900KS support.

I let HWInfo run all day, and no 0c reports whatsoever.

Thanks for the great news

I can confirm that on 11th gen the 0° core problem seems to have been fixed as wel with a new microcode version 53. Been running now for over 4 hours without any 0° glitches.

How can I find out what microcode version I have? Is the microcode updated through the BIOS firmware?

 

[Martin]

Check in the summary screen or main window of HWiNFO.

Thank you! I understand correctly that in order to update the microcode, you need to wait for a BIOS update from the motherboard manufacturer?

 

[Martin]

Basically yes, but the operating system is also able to update the microcode.

Thank you!
