Ryzen 5 2600 Underperforming?

[robotxbot]

Is it normal that I got a cinnebench score of 6562 (multi-core) and I see others getting a score of up to 7000+? Another thing is that while my CPu is under 100 percent usage is it normal for the temps to be 82c?

Which version of Cinebench are you using? R15, R20, or R23? The different versions' scores are not comparable.

 

A temp of 82C under load isn't too crazy. It's not great, but the max safe temp for the R5 2600 is 95C, so it isn't like it's going to destroy your CPU. However, lower is better, and you might get some amount of throttling at 82C depending on how the motherboard is configured.

What Cinebench? R15?,R20?,R23?

I need a graph of the CPU usage + temps + clock speed during the test

 

I have the same CPU

Others may have PBO enabled, which can make a decent difference on Zen+

PBO cannot be activated on this CPU,I tried it

I had to overclock it the old way,it's at a fixed 3.9GHz,which is the max boost speed of the chip.

r 23 and usage was 100 percent the entire run, and the cpu was running at 3.6 ghz mostly the entire time and the temp stayed 82c max

yeah - but those ~500 pts arent that big of a deal and are most likely achieved with overclocking.

 

in other words your cpu seems to work as intended by the manufacturer.

 

PS: the one thing i could see is bad cooling perhaps. iirc 82c is where theyll stop boosting, but not 100% sure.
