CPU and CPUs multiple overheating with Battlefield 2042

Only thing running is the game, AIO sftware, and hwmonitor or openhw monitor; like I said this ONLY occurs with BF 2042.

I can run any other game (including Cyberpunk 2077, ArmA 3, AC Valhalla, Ghost Recon Wildlands, HALO Infinite, WH 40K: Dark Tide, GTA V, CoD Warzones 2.0) for hours with temps maxing out at 78C on my i9 10920X@stock settings with XMP on 360mm AIO, 75C on my i7 10700KF@stock/XMP/280mm AIO vs 88C with BF 2042, 78C vs 89C on my i7 920@3.842Ghz RAM@1444Mhz with Hyper212 EVO. Cycling GPUs not much effect; Nvidia or AMD no real difference.

Battlefield uses AVX which causes high CPU temperatures. The processor frequency will downclock if an AVX offset is set in the motherboard's bios.

That's why there's an AVX offset in bios to auto downclock CPUs and keep them from overheating when AVX is in use.

How do you set a proper offset for Battlefield 2042? I have a ROG Z690 Maximus Hero and when I go to the AVX offset settings it says User defined.....

I have a 4080 super and things are much cooler now than before with my 3080ti.  Battlefield uses a lot of resources. So, unless you have a semi beefy system. It's best to not put graphic on ultra. Keep it at med to high. Lower any setting that that use a lot of power. It can be your vents are dirty, fans are getting old and slow, a new more powerful power supply needed, and depending on location where you're pc is setup at can make the difference. I have coolmaster case. I find removing the cover that protects the three fans gets much better ventilation than with it on. The temperature drops by 6 celcus or more. Tells me something about my cases design. Now I have 8 fans. One large fan drawing air from the backside. Took from a Honda civic and converted it for pc.The others are all 120mm. Now the case is a wind mill and my case and components never go higher then 44 celcus. 

Hi,

I have Lian Li razer Edition Case 9 Lian Li fans and watter cooler Lian Li

3 fans inhaust and 6 exhaust 

The only game cpu get hot is Battefield

I have a well-ventilated Lian Li case with 10 SL120 fans and a ROG Ryujin 360 AIO cooler for my Intel i7-13700K.

For context, I play all sorts of games at max settings, and my CPU temps never exceed 62°C. However, with Battlefield 2042, my temps spike to 75-80°C. This seems abnormal, and I’m convinced it’s an issue specific to this game.

Does anyone have any workarounds that don’t involve downclocking the CPU? My CPU is currently running at stock settings.

@lgfpf  depends on what system specs ya got.
Post dxdiag , also dont forget that 13th gen is running hot straight out of the box with games as bf2042.
What temps are in youre envoriment at this moment ? Do ya set manual rpm for fans ?
If ya are on an ASUS board , then ya probarly need to do an bios update for the INTEL settings so voltages,watts and ampere arent set to "unlimited" for the 13th and 14th gen CPU's. <-- bad cpu batches , high temps , ect ect , check youtube for Gamers Nexus, Jayztwocents and Wendel tech1 about this worldwide issue 😉

Update us please ! Cheers

ps Intel is planning an microcode update for those cpu's , that will be related in platform brand bios updates +/- half august
