I think you have a busted AIO.

I would doublecheck mounting, thermal paste, if there's any plastic peel on the block.
And finally checking if the pump is working as it should.

Open your sidepanel and change pump speed, listen carefully. Check if the liquid is flowing, touch both tubing from the block to radiator, one should be colder than the other.

Good Luck

There is no problem with your cooler, neither your CPU, you just need to undervolt it. I am running my 7900X with a dual fan tower cooler Arctic freezer. I get you should be perfectly fine with your current cooling solution!
