Specs:

  • CPU: Intel i9-13900K
  • Cooler: NZXT Kraken Z73 (360mm AIO)
  • Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix Z790-A Gaming WiFi
  • Ambient temp: 22°C

The Problem: I was getting bad temperatures on my 13900K:

  • Idle: 45-55°C (I think should be 30-40°C)
  • Gaming: 80°C average with spikes to 87°C
  • Voltage: 1.368V in idle

I was confused because I kept seeing people online claiming they get 20-30°C idle and 60°C gaming, which seemed impossible with my Kraken 360.

Any tips? Im not that OC guy, I just want normal temps xD
