Gigabyte Aorus B650 fails to power on (red CPU indicator)
For Intel, simply select any CPU in the Intel Ark and check the TJunction temperature. The link provided points to a specific model, but 12900k corresponds to 100°C. For AMD, visit their official specs page for any processor. The source mentioned was about a 75°C reference.
They didn’t lower the CPU temperature enough to prevent melting. The reading was only 116 cubic centimeters per hour, which is far below the required 90 cubic feet per minute. Anything under that won’t work, particularly with modern chips needing over 150 watts.
