Hey everyone! I just built my first PC, and I'm encountering a really high system temperature reading. In the BIOS, it shows a constant 127°C. While gaming on Warzone at max graphics, my CPU temp spikes up to 80°C, which feels a bit too high for comfort. I'm using an Arctic Liquid Freezer 3 Pro for cooling. My GPU temps are fine, never getting over 60°C even during long gaming sessions. Right now, the CPU is idling at around 55°C. Is this normal? I'm not quite sure if these temperatures are acceptable or if there's an issue I need to address.

The CPU should start thermal throttling around 95 degrees. Have you tried using HWMonitor for temperature readings? It's a great tool to compare and ensure those readings are accurate.
I did check with HWMonitor, but I’m still hitting 80°C during gameplay. I'm also puzzled about why the system temp is stuck at that crazy 127°C. Is it a bug or something?
