Question High CPU temps with AIO

[7er]

About a year ago my AIO died, causing my PC to shut down due to high temps, which is to be expected. I ordered a replacement which is almost the same one, but the temps are way higher now. I've never been able to get them down to an acceptable range. I usually use my PC for gaming, and even while playing lighter games I average 85-98 degress C. CPU load can be 2%, and still the temps are that high. Even opening my browser makes the temps spike to around 80. My case is pretty bad for cooling, but I didn't have the problem before, so I don't know if that's the problem. Have tried shaking out air bubbles. I don't OC.
Temps meassured with NZXT CAM. During benchmark with OCCT i always hit 100.
Any thoughts or tips?

• AIO: be quiet! PURE LOOP 2 FX 360
• CPU: Intel Core i9-13900KF
• Case: be quiet! Silent Base 601 Mid Tower

Air bubbles should not happen if your AIO is installed properly, i am assuming there are no problems with the the thermal paste.

Generally in my experience AIO are not worth it unless you're into overclocking, and a hot running i9 CPU is a waste of money for gaming, i think a case with good airflow and a beefy air cooler would be better for you.

Your temperatures are fine.
If you don't occasionally touch 100c with a 13900K you are leaving cpu performance on the table.
