100°C on my CPU when starting the game

Hi,

I don't know if its come from last patch but my CPU goes at 100°c when starting POE2 and stay around 95°c 100°c all time POE2 is running.

I have just disable CPU Turbo mode with ThrottleStop, now my cpu stay at 45°c all long. (maximum 57°c)

I have Intel Core i9 12900K and NVIDIA RTX 5070.

Without Turbo mode on cpu, game is running fine and smooth
Hello,

The max operating temperature of your processor model is 100°C

You should check your CPU airflow or water pump. Such temperature bump translate toward a hardware issue somewhere.
