14700k overheating

[LoadingHappiness]

I was playing flight simulator 2024 and my cpu temps kept jumping up too 100c while flying in the game (menus the temps stays around 50-60c) decided to download intel extreme tuning. This is the Intel default settings and it keeps saying thermal throttle and power throttle. Is this normal? And is 253 watts turbo boost too much and should I turn off turbo boost all together. I reapplied my thermal paste and it didn’t change. None of my games crash or stutter and I’m getting good fps. Maybe I’m just over thinking it

What is your CPU cooler?

Maybe increase the pump speed and fan speed a little?

 

253 watts is the max turbo boost so that is working as it should.

You have one of the hottest CPU's on the market so a 240mm will struggle if the pump/fan speed is low during heavy load.

You might see an decent decrease in temperature if you buy a contact frame.

 

You can see here with a 12900K that GamersNexus dropped 10c on max core temp with a Thermalright contact frame!

Thats an insane difference.

So i ended up messing with the voltage and turbo wattage. Set the wattage to 200 watts (I read on Reddit anything over 200 watts is pointless) and undervolted by .9v I’m siting clocking 5.4 GHz during stress test but now my temps stay around 90c during cinebench and 65-75c during flight simulator and I’m actually getting better performance!

Too weak, for 250W you need 360+ AIO
