Ryzen 9 3900X temps

[KRISTECH93]

So I just recently reinstalled. Upon installing programs and drivers and such the computer naturally had to make a couple of restarts. On several of those the speaker beeped three times and the screen gave e a "CPU OVER TEMP ERROR". Then when finally back in Windows after all the installs I go to check CPU temp. 80C+ on idle.

 

 

What's wrong here? Is it normal or do I just need to reapply thermal paste? I did notice the stock cooler was a little bit loose.

 

I have not done any overclocks.

If the stock cooler is loose- it might not be making contact with the CPU. and Contactless cooling is basically impossible, especially for a 3900x. Seriously dude, the CPU comes with thermal paste, just make sure to get the contact plate of the cooler in full contact with the CPU. the cooler shouldn't be loose.

Install the cooler properly and it'll be fine.

Welp....

 

I hadn't turn the lever to fasten it properly. Hence the looseness...
