Ryzen 5 2600 on stock cooler

[afallucco]

Hey, I'm new to the pc building gang but glad to be a part of it. I have a ryzen 2600 with the wraith stealth and I've been doing research on dropping thermals to increase performance. I built my pc on a budget with plans to upgrade the cooler and such in the future. Replacing the cooler aside, I've read in various places that undervolting can help lower thermals and increase boost clock performance. I've also read people talking about not undervolting because it'll ruin the cpu. So far I've tried to deal with Temps by having an aggressive fan curve but I'm curious to see what performance I can achieve fine tuning my system as it is now before I upgrade anything. 

 

Would the recommendation be to maintain stock voltages from the motherboard or should I undervolt, and if I undervolt does anyone have a good guide or thread on what to do on gygabyte boards?

What are the current temperatures on the cpu? Under load and idle.

Reduced voltage can't cause damage, only instability while the lower voltage is in play

cpuid hw monitor before and after blender bmw on the cpu. Before the benchmark is idle.png, after bmw cpu blender is blnderbmw.png

 

Hottest was 89 Celsius under load, idle was around 52 Celsius.
