Stress on CPU is insane.

[Praesi]

Hi.

CPU 13900k (i know all about the 13/14th Gen issues. My Bios is fine)

Multi Core inGame is active.
Heat and CPU usage are off the charge with PoE2. Usual my Temps go to 80° max when under full load..this Game reaches 100° with DLSS off.
Wit DLSS the Temps are around 10° max lower. Jumps from 75-90. Also the CPU Usage in Loading Screens goes up to 75%.

I doubt this is intended.

Anyone else with similar experience?

I have 13 gen 13600kf , its completely fine... with dark rock elite its cold in my pc. max 55 degrees with unhearable pc at all. learn to undervolt your pc and set your bios.. I played with bios and settting like 48 full time hours after building my pc.

[Peeto]

also 80degrees I would never use that... set your pc to have max 35c in desktop, 50-60c max during high intense games.. and MAX 70c during cinebench

Guys...50-60° Temps with the 13900k under full load is absolutly BS. Dont answer when its just Nonsense..Jesus.

u need very well pc tower , mesh in front... in up are not so importand, enough coolers to put fresh air in... something like fractal compact etc anything with mesh u need as 13/14gen needs that.. also underwolt till u are not loosing power, as much as possible, decrease max wattage also and also max voltage etc etc etc its a lot of thing, u have your pc setup wrong, it can not reach ever 100c... in my case it can not reach ever 80c

Your CPU has a TDP that dictates how hot the component can get, which means - unless you somehow are changing coolers between playing other games and PoE2 - 100% load always equals the same temperature, regardless of what that workload is. You can have 2000 videos of the hamster dance open while being decoded on the CPU, it doesn't matter what that workload is. There's no "b-b-but this game is making it warmer!!!" - games cannot break the laws of physics and increase the TDP of a component. You were not properly benchmarking and burning in your system if you have gotten lower numbers before and 100% load is the ideal state for components to be in for maximum performance.

Quite frankly you need to stop looking at your temperatures. You have not done your due diligence and can't interpret the values correctly, because otherwise you would have opened the manual of your 13900k and read the tjunction max specification for that CPU, which explicitly states that 100°c is your OPERATING temperature. That means, anything below 100°c is considered to be the ideal temperature and it will boost clock to meet those temperatures or has reached a safe clock speed when hitting 100% usage. This is how components are intended and tested, to be used at 100% perpetually. Anything above 100°c means you're thermal throttling, which means performance is degrading ("gaming" laptops are constantly thermal throttled after a while, which is still fine, but they're semi-scamming customers). If it can't successfully thermal throttle and keep it below 110-120 it will just turn off to protect your PC. You're not even hitting 1 protection measure out of a dozen.

The only time you as a consumer have to worry about temperatures is when the system is shutting off, because that indicates a larger problem. Those problems are more common than installing a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ cooling solution that causes thermal throttling, which would be a miracle to happen when CPUs nowadays are tested on the most ass stock coolers to ensure that they're barely grazing the tjunction max.

If you really want lower temperatures because you're paranoid, simply downclock your CPU and tada - you can now run cinebench at 50°c max, because now it will only use 70% of its performance at 100% load. You're throwing your money out of the window with that, but it will ease the mind for some spiritually aligned people who don't want to read the manual or trust the laws of physics.

Same here too. When my loading screen runs CPU Temp like 95 degrees. Please GGG fixes this.

Did you even update your bios with fixes? Also if your cpu got damaged by the wrong settings before you updated it, then it's already too late. The latest bios updates are still better than nothing.

wait u meaning fahrenheit or celsius?

if 75c it's fine. though seems like ur thermal paste might dried out.

mx4 artic is insanely good. Either that or ur cooler or settings.

my max load of cpu 100% is 65c.

really? my 5900x (12c/24t) is chilling at 65C
