That's not the case, that's the cooler, there's something wrong with your setup.
Shouldn't be getting that high in any case.

my cpu has never got near 100c in the year i had this pc only when i stress test it dose ,i can get my gpu temps down with msi afterburn ,are sound prof case anygood??? i will be upgrading my cpu not the 13900k because its defo not worth the upgrade,my cpu cooler seems to be working dont think it is that ,,,ill just keep an eye on the temps and see how it gose before i change anything

Stress test puts it at 100% load. If it's reaching 100c, it's because something is wrong, shouldn't happen even under a torture test. You need to sort that as there will be scenarios in games or something where it will hit full throttle. Don't let it stay like that, that's how you burn a motherboard or the CPU.
There's nothing wrong with your case, you've proven that you can get the GPU down to 70c at full load, so it proves there's nothing wrong with the airflow.
You need to address your CPU cooling.
Thanks for your input but based on what’s been said so far, that suggestion isn’t getting to the root of the problem. Please consider taking a step back for the time being.

When you say you checked paste and it looked good, did you take the heatsink off and reapply without pasting?
Unfortunately when you remove the pump, you will introduce an uneven surface in the paste. you can sometimes get away with it with the more greasy pastes but it's always better to remove and re-apply.
Pick up some thermal grizzly kryonaut. Clean off the old paste, using alcohol, from both the CPU & the cooler plate and then apply some of that.
What torture test were you running?

It sounds like it's poor contact - but since he's taken it away from the CPU himself it doesn't seem like it'll come back to PCS on that one.
Perhaps buying one of these contact frames designed for the 12th Gen Intel CPUs? These Intel are sometimes a little bent out of shape,
I'm merely trying to save his GPU from reaching 90C due to the positioning of the CPU cooler in his specific case. If you want to perma-ban me for having an opinion, feel free. That is the OPs initial concern after all - not his CPU.
Adios.

It's just because it needs repasting, if you remove the heatsink you need to repaste otherwise there won't be sufficient contact.

Check out the post below, but basically yes you'd put the other 2 fans in the roof and configure them as exhaust fan, you;ll find an arrow on them that shows the airflow direction
The fettling has begun
Ok so the Berserker came with3 LL120 fans in the front of the case, mounted behind these is the radiator which then has a pair of ML 120 fans behind them. The 3 front fans are plugged int the fan headers on the motherboard and the lighting node, with the 2 cooler fans plugged into the...

seeing that I got the Corsair H100i ELITE CAPELLIX RGB Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler that came with the commander core which allows control of both cooling curves and lighting of the fans

no I'd get the commander core
