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.

XTU shows stars next to two of my CPU cores. How do I interpret them? (alien.top)

There are stars next to two of my eight P Cores when I view them in XTU.

I assume the stars mean they're the best two. And should therefore be set to higher clocks than the rest. Default sets these two to 5.8ghz while the rest are set to 5.5ghz.

I'm attempting to optimize my system, so am starting to research how to prioritize games to utilize one of these two cores instead of letting Windows randomly select cores to assign.
