Just as I suspected.

You need to go to Logitech's website and learn how to properly configure your keyboard. You'll know the temperature function is working properly when it agrees with Real Temp.

Nonetheless, Real Temp is accurate and dependable, and should always be used as your primary reference for Core temperatures.

Lastly, so you can get yourself up to speed on your processor temperatures, please read this Tom’s Sticky: Intel Temperature Guide - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1800828/intel-temperature-guide.html

Thanks,

I have an i7 8700k and I turned everything back to stock settings in the BIOS. Also, I turned SVID Behavior to Best Case Scenario. Now I have 97-99% utilization and constant 63-65C with near constant voltage as well. This is a powerful processor and it is performing much better after I put settings back to normal instead of XMP or any other alterations. Best Case Scenario should keep temperatures down. Hopefully this helps. By the way, I am also watching Netflix and typing this while using Handbrake!
