[SOLVED] Any advice on how to reduce my cpu temp?

I have the AI overclocking enabled on my mobo but even with that disabled it will reach the mid 80s when playing warzone.

They're in your bios look up your mobo and look up how to shut off speed step and auto turbo

 

[Dj0gany]

Thanks I will try that out.

Are you sure u have enough thermal paste applied?

I applied a pea amount of the thermal paste supplied with my cooler. I have also ordered more and am waiting for it to arrive so I was wondering if there were any other solutions.

Restore your motherboard's default settings please.
Unlike most of the other vendors, Asus has been sticking with the Intel stock profile. So restore mobo default settings, save and exit.

I would try using a different software for monitoring,lets say either MSI Afterburner or HWinfo.

Ive used speccy in the past as well with the same readings I will give afterburner a try though.

Since you tried it with a different software i doubt you will have different readings.
Try what @Phaaze88 told you to try.
