The second screenshot is in safe mode with nothing else loading. It's funny how at even 0%, all cores are running at 3500Mhz. The next screenshot is out of safe mode. Now they go back up to 5100Mhz. The question is, would there be a problem with my Z590-e chipset? My chipset is at 58C.
First screenshot Dan, your 11900K is running at 12.9%. Something is happening there ROG brother, some apps are running...
So the 1st screenshot is not safe mode, bios all defaults, and NIC disconnected fully offline? It's looking better, although booting into safe-mode doesn't really give any information we can work with - at least none that I know of. Find out what apps/processes are running on your 11900K at stock idle in Task Manager, maybe there's some bloatware you can eliminate or some app that you don't want running in the background. Also, check your start-up folder and delete or disable any apps there you don't want running.

Here's some older thermals with my 11600K - running an extra-large Noctua air cooler and single 140mm fan.
Stock Idle Delta:
This Noctua cooler offers a stock idle delta of 1C to 1.5C above ambient room. Not bad for a $99 air-cooler, although it is ridiculously large. :rolleyes:
So happy I moved to a simple water loop.
Keep in mind, these are "open test bench" thermals, not a case enclosure, although with side panel removed, there shouldn't be very much difference.
