Hey everyone! I'm testing my 7800X3D and running Kombustor to stress it out. Here's what I'm seeing:
- Idle temps: 40-50°C
- Gaming and lighter tasks: 70-75°C
- Kombustor burn test: hitting 87°C
I'm using an MSI Mag A13 360mm AIO and thought I'd have lower temps at these heavy loads. Just want to know if 87°C is acceptable for this kind of testing.

The 7000 series chips are known to run hot, especially the non-X3D ones that can hit 85-95°C under load. So, hitting 75°C during gaming is pretty normal for your 7800X3D. Don't stress too much about it!
Remember, those 7000 series chips are designed to hit their max boost clocks close to TJmax, which is around 95°C. You're still under that threshold, so you're good to go!
Looks like you're within a normal range for temps. Just keep an eye on them, but those numbers seem fine overall during heavy loads.
You're doing fine. A lot of people expect modern CPUs to behave like older Sandy Bridge ones, but that's not the case. It's common to see temps over 80°C in stress tests, with many touching 90°C. Don't worry about it!
I get that, but I was specifically asking about the 87°C during the Kombustor test since I expected it to be lower with my AIO cooler.
