Ryzen 5 3600 insanely high temperatures!! [HELP]

Hello.

I just built my PC.

 

Everything works fine, EXCEPT...

My CPU temps are insanely high! 55-65°C when *IDLE*, and when I ran prime95 stress test temps jumped to insane 95°C in the first couple seconds! I immediately ended the stress test.

 

Why could this be happening??

Also to note, CPU is constantly on 4GHz (didn't overclock it at all).

Also voltage is acting funny. It fluctuates very much.

 

Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600

MOBO: MSI B450 Tomahawk Max

GPU: Radeon RX 5700

RAM: Gskill Ripjaws V 16GB 3400MHz

SSD: Kingston A2000 500GB

My BIOS is second to the newest one available. That shouldn't be the problem.

Check of the cooler is properly mounted, try to reapply thernal paste. If the voltage is too high try to undervolt alittle.

As mentioned above, likely culprit is mount pressure as the wraith cooler has a decent TIM already pre-applied

 

You could also have a case of a bit of bad airflow in the case, to test this just see what the temps are with the side panel off vs on.

 

EDIT - just noticed you said its at a constant 4.0ghz - is your Windows power plan set to performance?  Set to Balance

tbh that doesnt sound far of the truth if you are running full clockspeed all the time
 

My 3700x easily matches that if i run it at 4.5ghz, even at idle

Guys, I made up my mind. I'll just buy a hefty cooler. What do you recommend for about 60-70 dollars.

Air cooler btw.

Water coolers last much less then air coolers and are also more expensive.

  • 4 months later...

I have the same issue, Ryzen 3600, MSI B450 pro carbon, and at idle it sits at 50-70c and doing anything the temp jumps to 90+

I assumed that it was the stock cooler but after ensuring that it was properly attached and that there was adequate thermal paste, I have not had any change in temperature. GPU and ram are both sitting near ambient temperature ~30 degrees

Did anyone have a reason / solution
