CPU Bottlenecking Itself? (HELP NEEDED)

I have an i3 8100 cpu with a fine after market air cooler in my pc, but while playing games, my cpu will go to 100% load while maxing out at around 50 DEGREES CELSIUS. This causes my discord to lag and comms go away completely. (the main game I play is Rainbow, which is somewhat cpu intensive). Does anyone know how to make my cpu go over 50 degrees? It would seriously help out a lot. Thanks!

Wait...... WUT?! 

You want to run the loaded cpu hotter? what for?

That chip is bottom minimum spec for that game.

What you need is to upgrade to a cpu with more cores and higher clock speed.

I play rainbow on my intel pentium g4560 and it goes at 70°C and takes up 60% cpu usage. i play vulken now and a 1080p i get 80fps to 120fps with a 750 ti that is at 100% usage but i have 2 monitors but with the second i get 80% usage not sure about that usage

my cpu will go to 100%

and there you have it, the CPU is maxed out.

 

want it to run hotter? take the CPU cooler off.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

50 degrees is not a problem. To help you better we need to know the rest of your specs.

that's not how it works.

 

it's not throttling. 

 

that's the max speed of the cpu.

 

if you want it to go hotter, remove the fan or take off the thermal paste
