8700k

I currently have a Aorus Z370 Gaming 7 and I still can’t believe how not user friendly their bios is. I’m coming from asus and I’m trying to figure out the adaptive voltage mode that gigabyte implemented. You set Vcore to normal and have a negative or positive offset but it doesn’t match up...

I purchased an ibuypower system with an 8700K. It has an AIO cooler but i suspect it's not that great. Running MSI Z390 pro, i turned on Turbo enhance to run all 6 cores at 4.7. It hits 100C and throttles periodically on intel extreme tuner. I'm merely a casual gamer, and was tinkering. Do...

So i have a i7-8700k not overclocked and my temps are usually 45-65c while gaming. its being cooled by a kraken x62 and it just seems kinda high for being water cooled or am i just being paranoid lol. I know those temps are fine but i figured it would be lower around 20-40c while gaming.
