9900k temps 5ghz - realbench temps

[sew333]

Have an question. My 9900K is oc to 5ghz with Noctua NH-D15. Stable vcore 1.320v. During realbench stress 2hours run max temps are 80-93+-. But when i run next 2 hours stress tests ,temps are 80-97+- and i saw in realtemp peak to 99C sometimes. GREALTEMP shows in red LOG.

Games temps are very low 60-70C.

My question. Is this normal for that temps peak on realbench? Overall are 80-90+-C in realbench,but after very long run realtemp show max 99C.

Can i use this cooler on games ? And i stop using realbench if all is stable.

Mobo is: Asus Prime Z390-A

I think you give yourself the answear already.
If your Games don´t reach the max Temp, which realbench really can, than is there no issue.
If your Games runs wihtout lags or hangs then it is still fine.

But if you Encode Videos or doing some Magic things with BOINC, than the Temperature needs more attention.

Have fun!
