hi just after some info or help with recently installed i912900KS im on the latest bios on my msi z790 mobo but have noticed that while gaming or running bench tests my cpu is getting over 100c and my core voltage is reaching 1.5-1.6v in some cases i know about the 13-14th gen issues but it seems im having the same issues on my 12900ks and because its not a 13th or 14th gen the new microcode doesnt update for me is there anything i can do or is this just how this cpu is please any help would be much appreciated

Are you using a liquid cooler or an air cooler? Did your cabinet have enough ventilation for going outside hot air.

Check the proper thermal paste is applied, and remove plastic from the heatsink. Disable overclock in bios

This also has nothing to do with why my core coltage is spiking to 1.6v under load
