So my 13th gen i9 13900k with CORSAIR ICUE H150i ELITE 360mm goes straight to thermal throttling from the PC not being on all day to cutting it on and literally within 1 second of starting a benchmark or stress test. Is this normal?

    Here to confirm this, my motherboard defaults to PL1=PL2=4096W. The manufacturer didn’t even add the option to adjust the power limit from that until I had owned it for over a month as well. My 13700k spikes up to 380W and settles at 350-360W at 100C under load if I don’t manually set a power limit.

      Mine is set to 4096, but it won’t let me change it. It says Auto and has no option to change it. Is there a different setting I change to unlock it? Basically everything in my BIOS is set to AUTO. Is it bad to use AI optimized?
