Concerned about i9-13900K temps with e-cores turned off, HT disabled, C-states disabled, CPU idle disabled, 5.7GHz OC running Cinebench. Would I need to go custom loop to bring the temps down or should I try reseating my AIO?

CPU: i9-13900KF
CPU cooling: DeepCool LT720 w/ 3x Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans
Motherboard: EVGA Z790 DARK KINGPIN
PSU: CORSAIR AX1600i

Yes I know the score is extremely low compared to other i9-13900Ks because I’ve turned off features like e-cores and HT. I am just not sure if this is normal results for my specific configuration? It’s not hitting Intel’s turbo power limit spec of 253W and supposedly per a Tom’s Hardware review, this CPU cooler is able to cool up to 315W (but what the review doesn’t show is if the CPU is being downclocked if it reaches its thermal limits).
.
In BIOS, I have everything set to “Auto” except for the pcore ratios which is at 57x, CPU C-states “Disabled, Hyperthreading “Disabled”, EIST/Turbo Mode “Enabled”, Atom cores (ie e-cores) are disabled.
