To capture a real screenshot, press printscreen on your keyboard and CTRL-V in the forum box, or utilize the Snipping Tool on Windows. Issues with that version. The CPU cooler is a common problem and doesn’t perform well for your processor. Have you taken off the sticker from the cold plate before putting it in?

I swapped the CPU for a warranty claim yet it remains 100%. While viewing a YouTube clip, it runs at 5GHz occasionally. Edited May 19, 2024 by Rissi

I took off the cooler sticker... so is it the cooler itself that's causing the issue?

Do you always operate your pump at full capacity? If not, you should adjust accordingly.

You meant 100% usage or 100°C temperatures? It looks like the few answers might be focusing on temperatures, but your title is about usage. To be clear... A CPU running at 100% while doing nothing (when it should be idle) could suggest a CPU miner virus or malware. Temperatures at 100°C might point to a faulty cooler mount or installation issue, or even a defective pump.
