High CPU temps(again) Will there ever be a solution?

Constantly have high CPU temps when playing(80-92°C). My PC is new. Of cource, I have decent CPU, decent fans, cooling and stuff. We know that this is a classical issue since the very open beta of the game and there is still no solution. All adequate people are well aware that this is not hardware problem in 90% of cases. Too many people experience this problem and either keep playing(and therefore they damage their PC) or simply forcedly stop playing because of the obvious risks of the constant high temps. What to do if I actually(what is rarity) want to play this pseudo-game? Still no useful information on reddit, steam and, above all, this forum(only Rokebo73 is continosly talking illiterate unreadable nonsense in all the topics).

  • @erzotasome system info would be nice.
    post a dxdiag
    Cooling system is important , and unfortunally is every system different.
    I had to change many thing hardware and bios settings so mu system didnt get that hot.

    And i run a i9 13900k , hot out of the box CPU.
    But after some bios settings (and/or bios flash to latest) , new aio , bigger better, this game runs at +/- 70 Celsius.
    Thermal grizzly frame , and better cpu paste grizzly extreme.

    And yes before i did run into the 90+/- celcsius.

    You got multiple options to prevent high temps.
    Make sure ya got an good airflow.
    Make sure ya got good cooling harrdware.
    Make sure ya got the correct bios/game settings.
    Make sure ya chase and hardware is clean and not full with dust.
    Or dont play the game.

    Many solutions more to prevent high temps, ya onle need to find them for YOUR system.

    Cheers

    ps ya could get hardware info from those youtube channels.
    they test hardware (settings) so ya know what ya got and could change/do.

    Gamers Nexus has the best CPU cooler reviews.

    CPU thermal paste should be evenly applied across the entire CPU surface as a thin layer using a credit card.

    Make sure the all-in-one CPU cooler is mounted properly to prevent air bubbles getting trapped inside the cold plate. Which will cause overheating and shorten the life of the water pump.

    Also check in BIOS to see if XMP is overvolting the CPU, which will cause the CPU to overheat.
