High CPU temp r5 1600x

[Nalitej]

Hello guys,

 

My friend is having problem with high temps on his r5 1600x. When we build his PC first time, his cpu fan (Wraith Max) was spinning like helicopter. Even if i change the curve in bios nothing changed. He played like this for like 3 months, his temps was like 60c while idle (via Ryzen master) and the fan was spinning so hard, but it looked like he doesnt work properly. After the 3 months his CPU was working bad and he couldnt run games even on full hd and lowest details. Now his temps are 60c while idle and 64-70c while gaming and fan is spinning quite hard. I just wanna ask if i mounted the CPU fan bad or theres some issue with the CPU before i dismount the CPU fan. And yes he has got latest bios.

Take the cpu cooler out and check how’s thermal paste, maybe it didn’t get mounted properly and it didn’t spread as it should.
