Question Is this overheating ?

aio looks fine in terms of mounting

at this point if youve been running it a while it could be the thermal paste has dried up

its either 1 the pump is dieing ( quite common on aio)

2. the paste has dried up or incorrectly applied.

im going to go with failing aio.

reason even if the game was pinning the 1 cpu to the wall that shouldnt matter if the cooler is doing its job

the max your cpu is hitting is 1.3v that should be nothing for that aio.

as someone suggested the fan curve could be to low this is easily fixed

if you go into bios look for cpu fan curve set fans at 75c 100 percent

i usually set my fan curve

30c 30 percent
45c 50 percent

65c 75 percent

75c 100 percent

a example is the cpu fan curve in bios could be set to 100 percent fan speed at 90 which by then the cpu is climbing. till it hits 90.

if fixing fan curve does nothing then its most likely a dieing pump or paste has dried up.

I think it's a bit more aggressive than what you posted but not quite sure, I didn't change anything as I'm tired and would mess things up, just looked, took pics and exited without saving, I did notice the aio pump reads na but I'm assuming that's because the arctic has a fan so it's plugged into a fan header.

My nerves are shot, stomach all upset, think i might just order an arctic freezer 3 360 and figure out how to take this in to a pc shop and have them put it on.
I was letting it sit idle while monitoring but as soon as i start hw info the max temps show 55 even though current is 37-40, after letting it sit i heard the fans kick up for a second and i go look and its at 74-75 with cpu utilization maxed st 80% so something kicked the cpu on while idle which heated up the cpu which kicked the fans on , it seems like i can't enjoy anything without something happening, how do I transport a pc to a sip without damaging anything, I cant take the gpu out it has one if those special plugs and id rather not risk damaging the gpu cause that I definitely can't afford to replace, it did have a sag bracket that came with it but dint knit if that'll be enough, I know buying things without knowing they are bad isn't the answer but my anxiety can't handle this, i use gaming for not only coordination from my stroke but I'm also an agoraphobic with no outside life, the pc is my outside life, and I dont know how to diag it further, I have issuescomprehending things people are telling me my brain Dont work like that anymore 😭 I also failed to mention my room is like 75°

What would you do in my situation

little bit of an update, i got frustrated and was like let me just get on the game for an hour and check the temps and go from there, i then deleted the config files (usually only 1, bo6 has 3 all for cpu and performance which is weird) and reinstalled them, found one config file had my cpu using 9 cores when it has 8 and should have been set to 7 (1 less than performance cores) , also my frames are back stable not all over the place ( was going from 200 to 80 to 300 to 90 to 230 to 100 etc literally looked like a slot machine) like the day when it got to 85, im still 100% going to keep monitoring but these numbers do give me a bit of relief, i wasnt streaming either but was when it got to 85 so i will test that next , also opened the window to let some cooler air in the room ( dont know if that helped but it didnt hurt) so i will get back on here after i test the pc when streaming and doing another hour or more of game play , not tomorrow its supposed to be 81 in michigan in november lol, but i can at least sleep a bit better knowing that the pc doesnt get hot when just gaming and the window cracked at 1 hour 8 min

In general if you never see a thermal throttle condition the machine is having no issues it is running at its maximum rate and not being limited.

Even if you were to hit the thermal throttle limits the machine itself is still safe that is the purpose of the limit. The actual temperature that will damage the cpu is higher than the point it limits itself. There is another safety feature that will turn off the cpu if it would somehow get above the first throttle limit.

If you constantly run at the thermal throttle limits and you think the load you are running should not be doing that you then consider trying to "fix?" it. You can remove the heat sink and replace the paste and clean all the fans etc. Not really worth the risk of damaging something unless you have a actual issue.

played today after redoing config files (one config fle has my cpu set to 9 cores so i believe that was what was causing all the fps issues but not so much heat after gaming today .) these are my temps after 2.5-3 hours consecutive with stream running , it was at 80 until i minimized the game and opened up opera browser, also very warm in the house and muggy , 74 with 80% humidity , averages are great but max are what scares me, i know you said dont fret unless im throttling its just i have 2 -2.5 years in saving to even have this pc, all my fan curves are agressive in bios and pumps set to 100

This is where you need to trust the intel and amd engineers. They have clearly stated that you can run modern cpu at the thermal limits 24x7x365. Although the values seem high it is going to be a matter of getting used to the high numbers. CPU running this very high temp have been on the market for quite a few years and you do not see large numbers of people complaining about their machines failing. Closest is the intel 14900k stuff but that was due more to overclocking voltages.

The newest intel cpu are designed to run at 105c so now people need to learn that even 100c is not too hot. Good news I guess is even air coolers have no issue keeping up with the newest intel cpu since they use less total power to get the similar performance as 14th gen stuff.

The 84 wasnt very long only a few seconds, In the current temp column it was like a blip its not running at 84 long i think that's where im getting confused , averages are good, cpu reached 84 for a short second (only after starting opera which I've un-installed as it pegs the cpu to 100%) my idle temps are 38 now that I've un-installed operating, i guess what im asking is, do I pay attention to max if the current and averages are good and not that high? Am I freaking out for no reason?
