I have a very frustrating situation here that have been trying to resolve for days without success.
I used to run all my projects on GTX1080 Ti with an Intel Chip and 32gb of rams and even if it was a limited machine everything was working great.
I’ve decided to purchase a new machine with the following specs on fresh Windows 11 Pro:
-RTX 4090
-Intel i9-14900K
-64gb RAM
Once I got the new machine and installed Unreal Engine 5.3 I started to have problem with projects. Even with Samples Project, Unreal keeps crashing giving me different messages that I posted here below:
From my understaning they all point to a GPU-related problem.
I’ve been looking on many forums and different solutions and I’ve tried the following steps all unsuccefully:
-Checked and Updated NVIDIA Driver (Even using Cleaning Tool from NVIDIA)
-Restore Global Settings on Nvidia Control Panel
-Deactivated auto-swithing card and only using Dedicated GPU
-Increased Page File Size
-Verified Unreal Engine (I also tried to install a fresh UE5.4 but same issues)
-Deleted Intermidiate and Saved Folders within the project (Sometimes works and it opens the project but it will always crash eventually)
-I’ve used OCCT to run some stress and stability test on GPU, CPU and RAM and seems all fine from there.
It’s all very frustrating and I’m really lost on what to try next.
Please let me know if I’m missing anything?
Other things you can try is…
->Install the Nvidia Studio Drivers.
->Change the video card if you have available to another PCI Express.
->Monitor the video card temperature.
You might have a different motherboard but some people respond below that video with their screenshots of the motherboard.
If you have a asus prime z790 motherboard by any chance then ASUS just uploaded a bios update with a function called “Intel Baseline Profile”, you only have to enable that one I believe after the bios update and dont have to make other changes. More about it here:
If you don’t have this motherboard or are not familiar with bios updates (can be risky if you dont know what you are doing) then I suggest the workaround from the twitter video.
Similar setup and issue. Tested my GPU and seems to be fine. Turns out that there’s an issue with i9-13900K and i9-14900K and Unreal (Epic is not to blame).
What should help is updating your motherboard firmware, e.g. on my Gigabyte motherboard an update (version F30) says:
…
Introduce the “Intel Default Settings” and enabled as default
Introduce microcode 0x12B as the final mitigation of 13/14th Gen desktop processor Vmin Shift Instability issue according to Intel official
i. 0x12B encompasses 0x125 and 0x129 microcode updates, and addresses elevated voltage requests by the processor during idle and/or light activity periods.
ii. microcode 0x129 (August 2024) addresses high voltages requested by the processor.
iii. microcode 0x125 (June 2024) addresses eTVB algorithm issue.
