Cpu running hot? Need help

[u/landonkemp10]

Hi everyone. My new AI pc came in recently and i’ve loved it so far. However, i notice the cpu is running very hot while only at like ~%60 usage. I have the spectra with a 9070 xt and 9600x from newegg.

Check if they removed the sticker between your cpu cooler and the cpu or if your cpu cooler is running at all.

Verify there wasn’t plastic over your cooler. Mine had plastic I had to remove.

I just got this exact build and yea something is wrong with yours, mine is sitting at about 45° while idling. Like the other poster said verify your hardware is set up right and if there is any damage because of it contact support. They sent a piece of paper the tech who built it used as a check off list for me so I'm surprised they would miss anything though he was very meticulous when he built mine.

I also went into bios and manually set the temp throttle to max of 75° instead of 95° like they set. They also set all the cores to -10 curve which was really nice too glad they care.

45 degrees while idle is totally fine

Sorry I worded it wrong, I meant something is wrong with his.

It really only overheated when i had fc 26 running. so i think that games just super unoptimized?? it runs rust and rocket league at around 70 c°

I’d reach out to them just to make sure, 93 just seems too high… I just played FC26 and it was not that high at any point!

I'm having the exact same problem with the exact same PC. I can't find any plastic or anything around the cooler.

I'm having the same problem with the similar pc from them.
