CPU overheating

[Kisstouch]

Hi! I have an AMD 5600X and I had multiple freezes/crashes. When I tried to boot back my PC said that my CPU was overheating ; he reach 70 degres. Any way to work this aroud? Thanks!

dust it.

Did you upgrade windows to h24, because that is a problem.

What kind of cooler do you have?
What's your average CPU temp while not in game?

[Kakash]

Make sure your fan is moving

70C is not overheating on Ryzen.

It's brand new and pretty clean inside, POE2 is the only game I have trouble with.

70C is not overheating. A lot of passively cooled network routers run 24/7 at this temperature.

I'd look at your cooling setup if it reaches 90C.

turn off turbo boost

nah my i4900k runs at 60-62 C while im gaming T&L , POE2 but its more than likely the normal intel issue . but youll be alright at 70C . 90C is overheating...

same cpu for me, 0 problems just sometimes fps drop cuz juiced maps, maybe fews crashes with 100h

this mine gets to 85 and it is just fine of it get close to 100 start to worry

Are you regularily cleaning the dust out of the fans? Are the fans spinning when its powered on? Watch a YT tutorial how to do this if you dont know how to safely do it (hint: dont let the fans spin when you blast air into it).

Is this happening in other games? If no, its likely not your video card.

70C doesnt shut down your system...

Your CPU will throttle once TDP is reached. Which for most chips is over 105C.

This game is not heating much if you keep shadows + GI off and keep it at medium or high shadows which causes the CPU to work less filtering the extra light and effects.

Load screens will always be an issue with short temp spikes but nothing that will cause crashes.

You may want to look into the rest of your specs for us like RAM and clock speeds or driver version for your GPU, because if you use the latest drivers right now there is crashing happening with it. I'm using an older stable driver.

My i7-11700k spikes to 82C in load screens but sits at 65C while playing. When I had shadows + Gi enabled it was spiking to 90C in load screens and playing at 78C.

Its fully cleaned and pasted and has a good block cooler on it with 2 fans for intake and pushing out at 80% speed.


A 5600x should be fine.

I also noticed my CPU temps were going 100~ when loading new map etc and the whole thing would just freeze up. However I don't think it's CPU issue at all, changed in game render option to Vulkan and run game as admin and I no longer get those freeze ups and CPU temps are normal 70~. Intel architecture

Would not surprise me. That's why i'm not updating, Till I see concrete evidence that it works.........
