Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

I did this, also needed to upgrade my cooler to a 360aio so keep that in mind, the 14700k is alot hotter, like alot...
Did I notice anything? No not really, I already had 400fps in cs2 for example, yes now the number is like 500-600, do I notice it though, is it tangible? Not really.
Good to know im future proofed for longer though.
It only runs hot with these out-of-control default motherboard settings. Set your power limits to 253W (the Intel spec) and you'll get 96% of the performance (literally) and temps in the upper 70s on a torture test vs instantly at 100 during the same test with the power unlimited.
And before anyone says that that eats into the performance gains in coming from 12th gen, nope. Because 12th gen also needs to be power limited out of the box to 241W (again, the Intel spec) in order to not have the same exact issue. And again, it's roughly that same 96% of the performance at 241W.
