I built my new system recently, and today I got back around to doing video stuff. I'm using a 5600X with an ID-Cooling SE-224-XT, in the Phanteks Eclipse P300A with 3 of their 140mm fans installed. It idles fine, and normally never goes above 70 in games and stuff; I just discovered, however, that direct workload tasks like exporting videos from my software really cranks it up. My 5600X will consistently draw ~115W, and in the process easily reaches 85C. Should the 5600X even be drawing that much? My SE-224-XT's fan is definitely ramping appropriately, and I did the standard pea drop with even pressure when I installed it.

Never heard of this cooler but seeing its a single 120mm with a bigger heatsink/fins than stock.

 

What is your voltage? Knowing my own 3600 didnt like high voltage just created alot of heat..

I had a 3600 with the stock cooler in my old rig, and I don't think it ever got that hot, which is what's confusing me.

Update: I went into my bios and disabled PBO, and now my max temp on Cinebench R20 has dropped from 85C to 60C... at the expense of 10% of my score. Not really complaining, but I'm considering this as my own solution after remounting my cooler and everything.
