Question CPU Performing Below Expectations

[Valcartier]

Hello,

I've recently overclocked my Memory and I have seen somewhat of a performance increase. However, after running User Benchmark, my CPU is still underperforming. Specs are attached.

CPU: Intel Core i7-12700KF
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3070-Ti
SSD: WD Black SN770 NVMe PCIe M.2 1TB
RAM: Adata DDR4 3600 2x8GB
MBD: Ibuypower INTEL

Thanks,

I would start with temperature and power. What power supply? How is the CPU cooled? What are your temps for CPU and motherboard?

Thanks for your speedy reply. I'm not very familiar with how to find this. Could you assist me with navigating to find the correct information?

You can use tools like HWInfo to monitor your temps.
Your cooling is something you will have to figure out by physically looking at your PC. Your build invoice might provide insights to things like power supply model, cooling, motherboard model. Those are ALL critical pieces of info to help anybody help you.

750W doesn't say ANYTHING about the quality of the power supply. You need to find a manufacturer and model.
"Average" temps don't tell anything. You need to find out what happens when you stress the CPU. Does it peak at 70C or does it hit 90+C ?
You have a liquid cooling system. What are the fan and pump RPMs when testing ?
