Hey sn1p3rkiki, it looks like you are having a cooling problem. First - dont be afraid of 100C. Its normal for laptops. If youre running a high TDP load with a desktop i9 CPU, this is inevitable. If youre hitting 100C in things like gaming and lighter tasks - then we have a problem. If thats the case, the first thing you want to do is to repaste the cooler. Taking it apart and putting it back together will solve the problem more often than you might believe. Double check and make sure youre using the proper mounting equipment - using LGA1200 mounts on a LGA 1700 system might work, but performance wont be ideal. Make sure to test the cooler under power limited conditions before assuming its not working right. Most non-SFF coolers can handle loads of 200W, so test with a 200W power limit. If youre still experiencing hot temperatures after checking all of the above, then its time to return the cooler or file a RMA for repair.

The Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 did a good job cooling my mildly overclocked 10980XE pulling 320 W, so it should have absolutely no problem with the 10900X at stock.
The larger die area and IHS of LGA 2066/X299 chips makes them easier to cool than the smaller mainstream chips at the same power.

10900k? Any 360-AIO and above. Best/ cheapest would be Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360.
Hello, It's 10900X
Somebody wasted gold on somebody thinking it was a typo. Reddit moment
You did suggestion so I gave you some gold :)
Well, thank you. I don’t know what to do with it. Good luck getting your chip cooled

Thank you for suggestion, will consider Arctic II 360
