Initially that picture seems to resemble a hardware monitor rather than HWinfo. It's fine, but HWinfo provides more detailed information. Still, there appears to be an issue. Your CPU power consumption hasn't dropped below the 50s even when running in minimum mode. Typical idle power for that chip should range from 3-15, and around 20 seconds for idle tasks. A +50w figure for idle and minimum is definitely off. Would you mind swapping HM with HWinfo, resetting your BIOS, and then sending over some images? Also, if you're not using Windows 11, that might be related. Make sure no bloatware—like Lian Li or other utilities—is running, especially on a bare system. @emosun Those temperatures are accurate for the 13900k, though it does vary with the game. You could easily stay near 70°C in certain titles, particularly if multi-core enhancement is turned off. And normal idle temps usually sit between 35-40°C. Higher readings can happen in specific games depending on BIOS tweaks.
Consider running cinebench r23 on multiple cores. If your CPU immediately hits 95% or higher, it may indicate a bent CPU causing poor thermal contact. This issue stems from the subpar design of the LGA1700 socket clamp. You have two options: 1) Lower the voltage to reduce power draw—begin with a -0.100v adjustment and ensure stability. 2) Replace the socket clamp with a contact frame that prevents CPU bending, which should help maintain proper heat dissipation. Note: Your video exceeds 1.4V, which is excessive. The board is likely overvolting the CPU—apply a -0.100v offset and possibly -0.125v. Also turn off multicore enhancement.
Based on what I've seen, it seems the issue might stem from a poor thermal paste. The age of the paste isn't specified in the posts, but if you're experiencing high idle temperatures despite using a 360 AIO, it could point to that component. Undervolting can help, but those temps shouldn't rise so much with such a powerful setup.
