Hey y'all, for some reason my R5 3600 is idling at 55-57C, although under full load, it maxes out at 78C which is weird. My CPU Settings are 1.2V @ 4.2ghz max clock, I'm hoping the idle temp being high is normal, let me know, thanks!

Normal. Your cooler just happens to run a higher temp gradient. 

Idle temps mean nothing.

Perfectly normal idle temps.
