No, your 7800x3D is not broken.

I discovered a Reddit thread discussing updates for NVIDIA drivers, though his issue involves CPU utilization rather than temperature.
This seems to be something outside my usual expertise, but it might point to a driver-related problem.
You're asking for feedback on whether the 7000 series X3D works similarly to what you've observed, and you're curious about actual temperatures during gaming or heavy loads. It seems you want to confirm if the design differences between AMD and Intel CPUs affect thermal behavior in practice.
It's around 70% during gameplay, but my PC is behaving oddly. I can't start from BIOS and the fan control isn't responding.
Idle performance sits at 70, but gaming runs smoothly without issues on AMD processors. What method are you using to reach BIOS? You might boot into BIOS from Windows, or try pressing F1 if needed for your motherboard. Regarding fan settings, it seems you're attempting a Windows-based control tool since direct BIOS access isn't possible. It's unclear why this isn't working—consider checking BIOS updates for your board and ensuring you're using the most recent version, particularly for AMD systems.
During the attempt to start Windows, the interface didn't appear at all, but now fan control—an external program—has begun functioning.
It doesn't seem probable. Verify HWinfo64 (select sensors only) when launching the program. Begin a game and let it run in the background. After a while, you can review peak temperatures. Make sure PBO is enabled; the game includes an MSI auto-overclock feature.
