I recently started playing Warzone and noticed that my CPU temperature spikes up to 90 degrees Celsius. My PC is well-equipped with 9 fans and an AIO water cooler, and I just replaced the thermal paste. Typically, the CPU temperature is below 30 degrees when idle. Is this temperature normal during gameplay, or should I be concerned?

I've seen similar spikes while playing heavy games like Star Citizen. Those games can really tax your CPU, especially in complex areas. I ended up undervolting my CPU to manage temperatures better. It helped a lot, but I do feel it's frustrating to have to do that just to keep the temps in check.
Warzone can be very CPU intensive, so hitting 90°C might be fairly common during gameplay. You might want to check what your CPU package power is when it peaks at 90°C. That could give you a better idea of whether it's a normal occurrence or if there’s an underlying issue.
