: The system will boot normally into Windows, though you must ensure your air cooler is actually capable of handling the CPU's heat to avoid thermal throttling. HP Support Community 2. Using the "Performance" Heatsink

No software patch can fix inadequate cooling. You cannot "patch" away 300W of heat. 528cpu requires liquid cooling solution patched

If you are running a system built around the AMD EPYC 528 (codename: “Torren”) or the newly discovered Intel Xeon 528P (hybrid architecture), pay close attention. A recently uncovered microcode flaw has rendered traditional air cooling and even basic All-in-One (AIO) liquid coolers dangerously inadequate. The only remedy is a patched liquid cooling solution. : The system will boot normally into Windows,

If you choose to "patch" the error while still using an air cooler, ensure your heatsink can actually handle the CPU's heat. High-wattage Xeons can reach quickly under load without adequate cooling. You cannot "patch" away 300W of heat

(150W TDP) automatically trigger this requirement in the HP BIOS. Workaround
