i9 14900k normal temps while gaming?

IntelEnglish · 1 year ago

I’ve recently installed the i9 14900k paired with a 4090, 32GB ram and 360mm AIO. The idle temps on the 14900k can be anywhere from 35-45 c and when playing games such as warzone it can peak at 70 c is this normal?I used to have the i7 12700k and it wouldn’t go past 40/45c when playing warzone.

Is there anything I can do to make this better or is it completely normal and good? Should I be editing any BIOS settings its all default (apart from XMP for the ram)

For Intel chips like yours, that’s normal. They run hot.

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.
