Bad temps with my cooler

I have a custom loop, using corsair hydro x's waterblock and pump res combo, and I am not getting good temps or a good oc. I have a 3600xt and a asus b450f motherboard. idle, at a 4.5ghz set clock I am getting 40-50 degrees, and under load I am getting around 70. I thought my idle temps would be better? Also the overclock is not going higher than 4.5, even with voltage increased.

Yeah, that's what i'm saying. I see people with my same cpu getting better idle temps with aio's which makes no sense.

What's voltage at? Temps don't seem completely outlandish for a 240mm.
