Threadripper 2950X with Noctua NH U9 TR4 cooler Idle temp 39C okay?

[Jrasero]

I have a Asrock X399M motherboard paired with a Threadripper 2950X cooled by a Noctua NH U9 TR4. I screen shot my temps at 39.25C Idle w/ RM settings. This is with the fans set on silent mode through the motherboard since on normal mode they are considerably louder, too loud IMO however with the fans on normal mode the Idle temps are at 36C-37C.  Ambient temp is 68F

 

Is 39C too hot for Idle? Or is this just due to my current RM settings, which were made when the system was hooked up to a Asetek NZXT Kraken X52

Or is this normal?

 

Also forgot to note in Sliger Cerberus mATX case

What should it be at?  any suggestions?

[Call_Me_Daddy]

IDLE temps for a high end air cooled AMD CPU can climb up to 45°C so IMO 39 is fine

under load you should see around 83 c

I mean, I would just care about your max temps, seeing as how you got a decent overclock on atm, I would test it.

Yeah I guess that's the most important thing.  I have tested everything yet, just switched out the AIO last night.  Hey where in Maine are you from?  I used to live in Cumberland and went to UMO

39°C isn't too bad. While it's a little on the hot side, it's not going to hurt your system at all.

As @Wolther said, your main concern should be the max temps,

lol sound like Maine but at least in the Summer it's a bit cooler than NY plus you live by the lakes

Update: After reading some of the comments about airflow on Reddit I added a Noctua NF A12X15 slim fan to the side bracket right above the cooler. There is very little clearance between the cooler and side bracket fan, but they don't touch. The good new is my Idle temps shot down to 34C with the panels on.
