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.

Still on a 10400f….yeah it’s weak and holds my 7800xt back…but prices for 1200 CPUs are still too high, and I really don’t care to upgrade my motherboard and ram.
Out of curiosity, what do you use to cool your cpu and what is your psu? (I’d be willing to buy a slightly better cpu if the price was right)
My 10700k is overclocked to 4.9ghz all core and is cooled by a Noctua NH-D14 that I've had for like 12 years now lol. My PSU is a Corsair HX1000i that I've had since 2020.
