Built my first PC, everything works fine, but having extremely high CPU temperatures while gaming
Preface this with my specs
Motherboard: B760M Gaming Plus Wifi
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32gb DDR5
CPU: i5-14600k
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-L9i-17xx
GPU: Asrock AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT Phantom Gaming D 16G OC
PSU: Antec GSK850 GOLD 850w
I’ve applied the thermal paste correctly and mounted it correctly as per instructions as well, i thought i may have done it wrong the first time so i removed it, wiped off the thermal paste with isopropyl alcohol and then put it back on, but i am still seeing temperature spikes of 95-100 on all cores while gaming (especially on rust, but also on other games) and idle temperatures in 45-55 range
i have four case fans (1 back 3 front) all set to 100% with fan control
I’m wondering if this is an issue with my cooler? is it not good enough?
Update: Bought a DeepCool AK500, fixed all my problems, if anyone else is having the same problem as me there’s your answer
