Ryzen 2700x temps spiking wildly

CarloTheGamer · September 23, 2020

Screenshot shows temps on Ryzen master while running aida 64, cpu is locked at 4.1Ghz and 1.33 volts. Running a 360 CM AIO and arctic mx4 thermal compound but CPU still spikes up to 82C. Dunno why this is happening, already tried changing rad to top position from being in the front (thought that it could have been due air trapped in the pump). This did not help. The spikes are of 10°C every time and occur no matter if the CPU is under load or not. Really have no idea what it could be. I found some posts about idle temp spikes due to single core turbo at low loads but this doesn't explain the spikes while under 100% all core load. You guys have any ideas?

Your chart has no axis labels, and therefore it provides no useful information.

I wrote that the spikes resulted in a 10°C delta and that after the spike the CPU would end up at 82°C, after which it would drop down to 72°C. No axis labels are therefore needed as the picture is simply there to illustrate the fact that the CPU temperature was spiking irregularly.
