Hi verbal, If you don't mind me asking, what are your P3D settings? I have the same CPU and GPU and even with Steve's suggestions I can not get the temperature down. Also, HAGS on/off? NCP settings? All the best, Kristian

Okay, I turned texture resolution down from 7cm to 60cm. Temperatures are almost 20 degrees lower now. I don't get it. That one slider is controlling my CPU temperature 🤣

No dust, cooling works excellent with XP12 and MSFS. I can not get the temperatures down, no matter what I do. I am out of ideas now.

That’s a good questions. I have absolutely no idea. I’ve been using the same settings for a very long time. How do I check this?

Thanks for the suggestion, Dan. I am running a vanilla P3D 5.4, default aircraft, default airport (in the middle of nowhere, not a "heavy area"). Tried those numbers for JobScheduler as well, no luck. Rarely below 80 degrees centigrade. I am running 4k (60hz) though, I don't know if that has anything to do with it. What I find strange is, that if I lower the "texture resolution" slider from 7cm to i.e 5 meters, my CPU cools down immediately. I find that a bit strange because I thought that would only affect the GPU. Anyway, I guess the time has come for me to remove P3D. I will miss the FSLabs bus 😢

I tried the 13900k AM suggestion found in this thread. Made no difference to the CPU temperature. Still 85-100. I have a top line water cooling system installed with my CPU. This is really frustrating 😔
