I7 12700F here, running on a asus prime b660 plus and cooled down by a deepcool castle 360 RGB V2 with the pre-applied thermal paste. Paired with 64 GB of ram and a 3080Ti if that's useful (I'll change my signature too....soon)
I'm running cinebench R23 on it and the temperatures worry me, in the multi-core bench (10 minutes) after 6 minutes the temperature for the P cores stays a constant 89-90 with peaks being 91 celsius, before that too, they're always around the 85-89 about as soon as the bench starts, for the E cores, around 74 with a peak of 75.
I'm pretty sure that comes into the throttling category but i want to confirm here first. Also, if a thermal repaste will help, currently I'm using the one that comes pre-applied with the aio, should I buy a new one? If so, which one of these should I pick?

- Arctic MX-4
- Cooler master mastergel pro
- Thermal grizzly kryonaut (this is just a bit on the more expensive side for me but i can make the jump if it's better than the rest here)
- Deepcool G40
- Deepcool Z9 (same story as the kryonaut).
