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?

    Yep. That’s how it is. i9-13900k, the impossible chip.
    I lowered my long range power to 225w, and short range to 253w, and that keeps it below 100C 99% of the time. Also replaces the Noctua DH-15 with an AIO and added three pwm fans, none of which really helped, and just made my computer noisier. Dropping the power was the main fix. I’m not over clocking either.
    Why they sell a chip like this is beyond me.
