Oddities include an OC mode jumper under the PCIe x16 slot’s lower edge,
While custom settings on the board allowed the i9-9900K to operate very well and even reach a 5 percent overclock, stock settings resulted in underclocking or power resets during extremely heavy software loads.
Since our CPU overheats at 1.35V, we started with the 4.6GHz setting and worked our way up to 4.94GHz at 49 x 101 MHz.
A default voltage range of 1.32 to 1.36V for the CPU core was the only data we could find to explain the power throttling issue and high wattage and CPU temperature. In fact, the CPU temperature crossed the board’s default threshold of 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit), which resulted from the motherboard’s default setting of 125 degrees Celsius (257 degrees Fahrenheit) being out of range for the CPU. Since the CPU’s thermal limit is 115 degrees Celsius (239 degrees Fahrenheit), restricting the motherboard via a 10-degree thermal offset actually enabled the 100 to 115-degree range.
It would be very informative to know when exactly the transaction to assemble was agreed to. Given the OP is asking for help now, I doubt she has been struggling for years with this computer.If she insisted for some reason on 9th-gen, and this was built recently, a supermicro board might have been the only one that he could source "new" for the build.
Z390 boards are AFAIK out of production, and getting hard to find.
Also, SuperMicro boards might have additional SATA controllers or RAID onboard.
Well, armed with the knowledge from the review, could you get her to boot into the BIOS and do a slight negative voltage offset?I couldn't imagine paying for what she got.

I'd type up something to Cali's Attorney General for some consumer protection complaint. She might not get anything because these Attorney General complaints are usually just mediation, but it can send a message to the guy that he lost someone.Well, armed with the knowledge from the review, could you get her to boot into the BIOS and do a slight negative voltage offset?
I wouldn't buy pre-built either, but some people have neither the time nor the knowledge to do it themselves.I would never buy a prebuilt, even Asus, MSI and Gigabyte seem to put out utter shit excuses for them. I'm so glad I know how to do all this myself. I couldn't imagine paying for what she got.

With MANY nicer HS/fans too! This was my first thought.
And if it's a "Supermicro" board it's unlikely it has much in the way of overclocking/overvolting since they only made a handful of boards that did. (they mostly do server stuff)
My bet would be he borked the physical installation.
I was thinking the same but look in the review in this post: http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=thread...od-computer-repair-shop.2609946/post-40931000And if it's a "Supermicro" board it's unlikely it has much in the way of overclocking/overvolting since they only made a handful of boards that did.

Ask her to download Intel XTU: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/17881/intel-extreme-tuning-utility-intel-xtu.htmlHe's an idiot and a liar so I can't ask her to ask him anything else so I get a better understanding of what he did. But I do know now that the PC was working, so unless he unnecessarily swapped other parts for bad ones when she took it back in because he's a crook, I'm clueless.

Looks like Supermicro had aspirations to become a mainstream enthusiast brand at some point but then gave up.
Anyways, when she got it back is when the problems started
Maybe she can try to get into the BIOS again.Welp, I got her to get into the BIOS finally, she lowered the voltage to something better and now it shuts down as soon as the SuperMicro screen comes on.
Does she have a pedestal fan? Maybe she can open the side panel and blow that on it full speed until she can input some stable settings into the BIOS.she got into the BIOS, it was 100c and that's what making it shut it down, I had her select load previous settings but it's still shutting down.
