But it usually doesn’t get over 70C in game, so I’m not going to mess with it.

So not an Intel build then?

I'm just salty as fuck that my last build randomly temp spikes for no goddamn reason that I can discern (and I just so happen to have one of the newer chips folks are complaining about).

Hah, nope it isn't an Intel. I'm currently fighting with my wife's old workstation that I'm trying to use as a Linux gaming rig. It has an i7 9700 in it, and it just does not want to run under 82C in game. I replaced the old thermal paste, added two (larger) case fans, and moved the HDD to improve airflow. I can try a better low-profile cooler, but I really don't know if that's going to do it either. Short of water cooling, which would mean new case as well, I don't know what to do.
