Hello, your setup seems to be functioning well overall. With an Intel Core i9 11900K paired with a RTX 3060 Ti on a Gigabyte B560M motherboard, temperatures during idle are around 45-50°C and spike to 65-70°C during demanding tasks. Your cooler, the Cooler Master MasterAir MA410M, is doing its job. You've already experimented with lowering TDP using Intel XTU, but it sometimes causes crashes. Reducing CPU temperature is achievable through better cooling or adjusting BIOS settings—consider checking if your motherboard supports Z-series chipsets and whether firmware updates could help stabilize performance.

Idle seems elevated due to reduced fan speeds, especially at 70°C loads... appears normal to me.
