CPU Temperature spikes

AMD's X3D processors like to run hot

i believe most youtubers suggest to undervolt a bit--> you keep the computing power but get less heat.

Again, I've played multiple AAA games and the temp never went above 81, there is definitely something wrong with PoE if it goes that high
I had the same problem with an AMD Ryzen 9 5950x using the directx 12 beta, when i tried the directx 11, it cooled around 20 degrees, i reached 86ºC with the beta



No clue what is happening this league, i haven't change anything in my pc, and this is just with poe+discord+spotify opened. My pc is heating so muchhhh and i've been playing with the same pc for 4 years all leagues and this never happened to me.

Yeah it's absolutely crazy, clearly it's not just a "me" problem and other people are having these problems too. Hopefully GGG do something, but I doubt it. We have long history of PoE running poorly randomly
I also have a 5800X3D CPU with a 3070 GPU, and I agree that Path of Exile doesn't utilize the CPU well compared to most games. I recommend undervolting the CPU, as it's an easy way to improve performance and temperatures. However, even with undervolting, my CPU temperature still reaches 67-72°C during casual red maps, which is high compared to other CPU and GPU intensive games I've played. I tried switching to Dx11, which improved the framerate overall (up to +200fps), but caused massive CPU MS spikes when killing large packs, resulting in hitches and huge frame drops. I also needed to run it with vsync to prevent the temperature from climbing to 80+. Although Vulkan was working fine before, I now experience random visual flickers on cosmetics which started in crucible for me, so I play on Dx12. It seems like the game's optimization for newer hardware is lacking, and they may be relying on Path of Exile 2 to fix these issues
I recently bought a 7800x3d.
The "problem" is loading. When you open the game, the CPU goes full tilt then it calms down. Same goes for when you load into a map or whatever. The CPU just goes full power to deal with the task at hand. While clearing a map its no problem.

CPU's theese days just boost themselves to thermal limits (or try to) whenever there is work to do.
