The way you have presented the question, it is evident that they are meant to be hot. https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1003130-9700k-running-hot/
Also, the architecture has some reasons for the chip to heat up, check the selected answer here for a possible solution for this, https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/i7-9700k-running-hot.3388819/
How is the fan speed control configured in the BIOS? Is the pump properly speeding up as the processor heats up?
