Hello Everyone,
I have a 14th generation 13900F processor and additionally MSI MAG CORELIQUID 360R V2 3x120mm liquid cooling. There are 3 stock fans in my case. The game in the screenshot is Cities Skylines 2. I use a 2k 240 hz OLED monitor at the highest settings. Regardless of the game, my processor generally reaches 100 degrees faster. Could there be a problem?
The only other game I've had close to this problem with is RUST,MANOR LORD,WAR THUNDER
My system elements;
CPU : Intel Core i9 13900F
GPU : MSI GeForce RTX 4090 VENTUS 3X E 24G OC 24GB
Ram : GSKILL 64GB (2x32GB) Ripjaws S5 RAM
Motherboard : MSI Z790 GAMING PLUS WIFI 7200MHz(OC)
Psu : XIGMATEK EU MINOTAUR 1000W 80+GOLD
Liquid Cooling : MSI MAG CORELIQUID 360R V2 3x120mm

MSI use a system in the BIOS where you select the motherboard settings by picking box cooler, tower cooler or water cooling. I see you have an AIO liquid cooler and may well have selected the BIOS water cooling option. This option sets the CPU power and current limits to levels that are significantly above the Intel default settings and could explain the CPU temperatures that you are seeing.
To quickly check if that is the case selecting the boxed cooler option will approximate to the Intel default settings. Consider trying this setting to see if it does reduce your CPU temps. If it does a more comprehensive solution is available if you are interested.

Changing the cooling system is a costly solution at the moment, and I think it is sufficient. I think the end result is my processor.

Hello Szngl
I am happy to know that you have not changing your cooling system yet as it is better if we continue investigating the system first before making any changes. For now, please share with us your SSU logs so we can be more familiar with your configuration. By the way, may I please know where you are observing the 100 degrees temperature? Were you able to check if it stays at this temperature for some time? I will be waiting for your reply.
