I just pulled a 2500k that I managed to get to 5Ghz @ 1.44v. So it's definitely not the memory. Just since I put the 2600k this started.

124 is generall vccio related "VTT".. try adjusting it and bump up system agent a tiny bit..Should do the trick!
great guide and bookmarked
Sorry if it's sound noob, but what about when it is just freezing? (no BSOD) temps too high?
Thanks for the guide... sticky?
0x 124 is definitely not VTT. Bumped Vtt and still got one. It passes IBT, LinX and will BSOD 0x124 idle or surfing. 2500k didn't do this, extremely frustrating.
It's not vCore, specially when you are using manual vCore. Because when it passes IBT, LinX, then shouldn't BSOD at idle.
It's not you RAM either. Because it's working fine with 2500k, assuming you are using the same RAM and settings.
The next candidate, and most probable source of problem is the IMC.
If that 2500K is doing fine wiht same MB and same RAM, with same settings, then probably the problem is the IMC of your 2600k.
Adding more VVT/VCCIO should help, but UnCore runs at the same speed as Core on SB, and some IMCs seams to be having problems at x50+, no matter how much juice they get.
I ordered another CPU. Found others with the same issue, it just seems to be that some of these are plagued with it.
I dont want to deal with this, a week stable then 4 BSODs in an hour. Its ridiculous. I believe it's something with the chip itself.
All the hardware is the same, I swapped CPUs. Even reinstalled the OS last night in case it was something with the software or a driver. Had 3 today in an hour. been fine the last few hours though, its really random.
Now this thread is going to come in very handy sooner or later. :)
Nice thread and good guide!!!
Nice thread, but does it hold true for the LGA775 platform as well? If so, what voltages in the LGA775 platform are equivalent (for these purposes) to the QPI/VTT voltages?
Guys two days now i have BSOD 0x00000124 error code with 2500K on P67A-UD4 when everything is deafult...
I didn't have this problem before... when i change the Vcore from Auto to normal or I set it manualy to 1.22 (which is the normal) everything is ok!
I changed bios,I cleared Cmos...same problem :(
The problem is the too low Vcore for sure!
My question is... this problem is problem with cpu or with M/B?
0x116 = Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU)
Got this often overclocking my 2 gpu-s, so what to increase with a SB setup?
any idea what 7F code means ? i7 Bloomfield .
Look for memory issues... timing,voltage etc
thanks for your help
I was getting idle bsods, surfing in youtube etc..watching movies, gave a sudden x124 and x101, usually x124, disabled c3 and c6 never had problem since.
@i5 2500k / 4,5ghz,Vcore 1.32 - Sabertooth P67 B3(1606 BIOS), 8GB Ripjaws X 1600mhz CL9, HD 6950 2GB(unlocked shaders)
got code 124 when i enabled the XMP profile for my ripjaws , during gameplay comp froze up and BSOD.. Thru my Mushkins back in and viola! works perfect .. Little upset about the ripjaws not doing their job ,prob a bad stick or something.
been clocking my 2500K a bit these last days and my experience is that 0x124 is definitely not VCCIO (QPI/VTT) related but just a matter of too little vCore.
