I was playing flight simulator 2024 and my cpu temps kept jumping up too 100c while flying in the game (menus the temps stays around 50-60c) decided to download intel extreme tuning. This is the Intel default settings and it keeps saying thermal throttle and power throttle. Is this normal? And is 253 watts turbo boost too much and should I turn off turbo boost all together. I reapplied my thermal paste and it didn’t change. None of my games crash or stutter and I’m getting good fps. Maybe I’m just over thinking it

Consider boosting the pump and fan speeds slightly. The 253 watts turbo is functioning properly, but a 240mm fan might not handle low speeds under heavy load. A contact frame could help reduce temperatures noticeably. For example, with a 12900K, GamersNexus lowered max core temps by 10°C using a Thermalright contact frame! Check the link for more details.

I adjusted the voltage and turbo settings, capped at 200 watts. Reduced the voltage by .9 volts. During stress tests, I ran at 5.4 GHz, but temperatures stayed low—around 90°C on Cinebench and 65-75°C in the simulator. Surprisingly, performance improved!

Demands are too low; for a 250W setup you should aim for over 360A with an integrated system.
