very high temps

[ZooMINZA]

hello guys, i built a pc with ryzen 5 3600 and tuf b450-plus gaming 

and the temps of the cpu are really high in idle they are in mid 70's.

i am sure of the way i placed the cooler it isnt my first build although its 

my first amd build i dont know if thats usual for amd builds but i am afraid to start gaming on those temps.

What are you checking temperatures with?
Have you checked that the cooler is seated properly?

So it's in the 70s in the BIOS?

When you're in Windows, use either Ryzen Master or HWiNFO for accurate temperature readings for Ryzen.

Also, update the BIOS to the latest version if you haven't already.

i did update the bios to the latest version i will check ryzen master and write what happens

What cooler are you using? Try putting it under load and see what happens to your temp. Your max safe temp before thermal throttle is 95C, so I would just put it under load and stop it if your temps hit 90C and keep climbing.

And what does it show up as in the BIOS?

If the temperature is this high in the BIOS too, then I'd chalk it up to a bad cooler mount. If it's normal in the BIOS, I'd try doing a fresh Windows install (if you're running an older install of Windows).

I guess that's all we need to know/. I'd suggest remounting. Remember to clean all the old paste off, and use a rice grain sized amount of new stuff, and once you press down with the cooler, you can't lift it up. So paste down, line everything up, firm pressure down, and mount it until it's tight.
