I have a 9800x3d and with an NH-D15 g2 cooler it peaks in temp in like the low 80s. At work we have two 9950x3d machines with 120mm coolers and I dont think those even hit 80c under load. Most of the time they’re in the 60s unless you’re going balls out to stress test them.
Oversized coolers. I built a PC in 2017 and put a 120x360 AIO cooler in it, at full load and the fans going full speed the CPU sits at 65-70c.
So you’re not trying to chill a modern CPU then?
My latest build is a 9800x3d, and like fuckwit said, it’s pretty easy to keep cool, even at full load.
