I'm running a i9 12900k that's cooled by a Lian Li 360 liquid cooler.
I've always noticed it can run pretty hot, but with a game I've been playing lately, the temps are getting quite hot.
On Mortal Online 2, the temps never go below 80 c but I can go long periods of time with the CPU averaging consistently around 95 c.
This seems very high, and I'm not sure if it's dangerous for the health of my components. I tried reapplying thermal paste, and that helped for a couple of weeks, but then it went back to averaging 95 while playing this certain game.
I have not noticed any throttling.
My question is: is this worrisome, or normal for a 12900k?
