Ryzen 5 2600 Temps

PCGuy7 · January 27, 2019

Hello. I recently upgraded my PC to a Ryzen 5 2600. When I open Ryzen Master it says I'm idling at 35C. But when I open iCUE (Corsair's RGB Software), it says I'm running 86C at idle. I'm not sure what the problem is. I have an AIO cooler (Thermaltake 240 Floe RGB). I made sure to apply new thermal paste and wipe the old compound off really well.

There was no overclocking done.

Thanks to any responses in advance.

iCue isnt really the most accurate when it comes to fan RPM's and temps. You're probably fine

Just did a quick google search and it brought up several other people with the same issue. Looking into it, it seems like its just a problem with iCUE and I would trust Ryzen Master over iCUE any day. If you're looking for a program to notify you if your temps get too high, check out Core Temp.

P.S. I'm not familiar with the Ryzen Master software so that is why I suggested Core Temp

Try a couple more hardware monitoring software applications like openhardwaremonitor and MSI Afterburner. One of them is clearly wrong.

ryzen master overall is the most accurate when it comes to ryzen cpu temps

I checked on MSI Afterburner and also Core Temp. Everything had the same temperature besides iCUE. I just happened to open iCUE today and I saw that high-temperature reading. Thanks to everyone that replied!
