I recently built a new PC.
1080ti FE
I7 8700K
Asus z-370 H gaming MOBO
32gb ddr4 2133
1tb 960 evo M.2
When windows was installed and ready to go i installed chrome, steam, core temp, Rainbow six siege and Final fantasy XV. I booted up siege while having core temp and the control panel up looking at the performance graph for the CPU. The game was running with 80-100% CPU usage without fail. The weird thing is that i didn't get really any performance hit from it being that high(staying at 190-290 fps all settings low except textures). I did notice a few random split second freezes throughout a couple matches. While building this computer i booted it up when i thought it was ready but the AIO pump wasn't being powered on so i shut it down right away. Did i hurt the CPU just from that boot? As soon as i tab out of Rainbow the CPU usage drops down to about 20% with steam and chrome running in the background as well. Final fantasy on the other hand seems to draw less from the CPU, Hovering around 50-70 % sometimes spiking to 100% as well. I played Rainbow on my old PC which is still great machine and never noticed the CPU usage going up that high, then again i wasn't watching the CPU graph as close as i was with this new one. My old(ish) PC specs:
1080 ti FE
I7 5930k @4.3
EVGA X99 mobo
32 gb Corsair Dominator Plat 2666
So really the only thing that changed with this newer rig was the CPU. I recall rainbow never going above 50% Usage on the 5930k. That makes me think there is something Physically wrong with this new chip. I took a few pictures of the control panel and Core temp program side by side(MAX temp 58.C) Is there anything i can do to diagnose this issue? Should i return the chip to amazon while i still can? should i bring my PC in somewhere to have it looked at? Did i downgrade myself? If you need any more info to help me let me know. Thank you.
