setup looks fine to me for airflow. The Kraken M22 isnt a particularly great unit anyways.

About as good as it's going to get. It's a single 120 rad so I hope you weren't expecting better cooling then a cm hyper 212 or something.

Your airflow configuration is good.

 

Are you experiencing issues with the CPU temps? If so you could move the radiator to the front and that should lower your CPU temps a little bit.

Yes because sometimes when gaming i reach the temps of 87 degrees is that normal or I did something wrong?

87 is a little high. Are your ambient temps also high?

 

A 120mm AIO is pretty bad you should have gotten a larger AIO or an air cooler.

Can you post screenshot while you are getting high temps? Also using some other monitoring software, mainly Ryzen Master or HWiNFO could be good.

 

The reason why you might be getting high temp can be some auto-OC going on. Or just PBO being shitty, but your temps are above what I've seen from PBO.

Go for a 280 AIO since you have plenty of unused space upfront. You can reuse the M22 for you GPU with the G12 adapter.

You've posted that already. Considering how high it reports max temp and how low your max voltages are, I'm gonna wait for another software reading before calling anything on cooler side.

I thought of this but they said that the g12 adapter is not compatible with the m22 aio

With ryzen master im idling at 50-53 and now my max temps are 80 after i reaaplied thermal paste i think thats the problem since i used the stock thermal paste from the aio which is not enough and also changed my power plan to balanced

Thats more on normal side. PBO seems to target 80C when optimizing performance boost.
