Discussing the 6700k sudden high temperatures
It seems you're wondering about the pump's functionality and sound. Have you verified if the pump operates normally and produces an expected noise?
Personally, 70 to 78 degrees Celsius won’t cause stuttering or thermal throttling; it’s likely the game needs more CPU power or the game is just too demanding overall. The 6700 is a 4C8T CPU, and games have evolved since then, which could be a factor. Also, running many background programs or using Windows 11 might be contributing. Before thinking about overclocking, check if it’s the right game—whether single-threaded or multi-threaded—it affects performance on this chipset.
