Hey y’all. Recently got a 12900k and was just wondering how important it is to upgrade my AIO to something bigger. Just trying to avoid “cooking it” overnight.

Most air coolers are better than 120mm aios.

Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can’t say something respectfully, don’t say it at all.
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
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.
