i7-14700k heating up to 100

Hi I just purchase the NFS Unbound in Steam Winter Sale. Ive been trying today on my i7-14700k using the latest microcode of x0129 it seems that my CPU is running at 100 degree celsius. 

Im not entirely sure why, it runs Apex Legends within the 80 degree celcius. 

Any help on this?

My mobo : Z790 Aorus Elite Ax
My GPU : Gigabyte RTX 4080 Super


Thanks

  • Hello @BlackCloud-lr,

    You issue is linked to your CPU, the CPU is over heating. Temperatures above 70 are concerning, temperatures above 80 can damage your CPU.

    This is a hardware issue.

  • Only for NFS it happens. Rest of the games doesn’t. This NFS heat, unbound. Forza Horizon 5 doesn’t reach 80 at all. lol. Even cyberpunk at 85. I using fan instead of AIO

    @BlackCloud-lr,

    As I mentioned earlier, a temperature of 80°C is too high for your CPU. The temperatures you're experiencing are excessive for all the games you've mentioned and the issue is not related to NFS Unbound, but rather to your system and CPU. For reference my average temperature while playing Cyberpunk is around 60-65°C.

    Best regards,
