Hello,
i have an i7 13700K in a MSI Z790 A PRO, but recentrly i notice that some cores get much higher temps and i can see in HW Monitor that CPU Throttling is ' YES ' in red but always 0%.
Is my cpu getting degraded ? i already limited my P & E Cores to 53 / 42

welcome summer 😉
Not sure if thats a sign of degradarion. I would say that it could be from bending. Those cpus tends to bend over the time, cause of its shape, and the thermal paste no longer fills the gap correctly. Try to repaste it, and search for ‘gaps’ in the original paste
You have a 13700k, you practically need a 360mm aio to keep thermals under control. That or limit power draw. For now just make sure the cooler is mounted correctly with fresh quality paste
