Ok, I've installed the NH-D15 and I've reduced my temp's my ~20c, this <Mod Edit> is insane! I'm now at 80c max with stress test from OCCT, I was at 100c before. and between 65 and 75c in BF5 whereas I was between 80 and 95c previously. I think it also might have been due to not having enough...

Thanks KyaraM, good to know! As said before I actually think it's also greatly due to COD cold war being very poorly optimized because I run BF5 in ultra, including RT, and I get over 144FPS. I'm receiving my new Noctua NH-D15 today, I'll see if I gain much CPU temp or not and will let you...

Going back to in-game CPU temps, I'm getting between 80 and 92c in BF5 4K 144hz ultra settings 144FPS locked, yet the CPU is only at about 30%, room's ambiant temp is 20c. That seems a bit hot to me, isn't it? I'm worried that when summer hits I might have issues, what do you guys think please?

Thx Avro Arrow, it's reassuring that it's not only/my gig.

FYI, I tested with BF5 this time, still in 4K, 144hz, fullscreen exclusive, ultra settings, including Ray-tracing, and it runs at 144FPS locked (so actually even higher), with a 1080p youtube video running on my second screen! so it looks like COD cold war is just optimized with the ass RT wise...

Thanks again for the prompt answer! about 70/80c

Thanks a lot for the prompt and reassuring answer drivinfast247! And you are right, COD cold war RT is mainly (if not exclusively) shadows, hence why I don't notice much difference I guess. Since you seem to be quite knowledgeable I'll throw a few more questions at you if you don't mind: I...

Hi, I've just built myself a new PC, and I've started testing and I gotta admit I'm pretty disappointed about the gaming/FPS perfs. CPU: i5 13600K stock (no OC) CPU cooler: Noctua NH-U12P SE2 (with LGA1700 adapter) Motherboard: MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI Ram: 2x16GB DDR5 6000Mhz (but throttled down to...
