High 5800x Temps

[PointFive]

So I want to say that I do know that the 5800x is not a "cool" chip, but I don't think it is supposed to be this hot. It performs normally, but I'm just afraid of being too hot. It's not overclocked or anything, it runs completely stock.

 

It idles (cpu usage around 3 - 5%) at 40C.

CSGO at 74C max, 504 avg FPS (RTX 3070) tested with Ulletical's map

Cinnebench R20 two runs in a row at 87C max (both at 87C), score of 5620. (kept a 4.4ghz boost all core)

When testing I used the ultimate performance power profile (Including the idle temps above), real world I run the cpu between 25-100%

 

So.. yea, is this normal?

 

Specs:

Ryzen 5800x (Thermal paste was using arctis mx4)

Gigabyte b550m Pro

Corsair h100i pro rgb xt (Fans using noctua nfa12x25, runs at 100% above 65C)

Fractal meshify c mini (Intake fans is using Noctua 140mm industrial ppc fan 3000rpm)

H100i with no curve optimizer adjustments, yeah seems about right. Perfectly safe, too. 

 

If you want to boost higher though in Cinebench for example, you're going to need to better cool it and play with the curve optimizer (i'm doing a quick and dirty -20 all core). For instance i'm using a EK 360 AIO, maintain 4.7Ghz through Cinebench R23 runs and top out at 81-82C. Idles around 30c.

Do you mean the fan or the pump curve?

 

Because for the pump, its at max (Extreme for corsair). For the fan I think is already decent because it basically kicks into 100% above 65C.

I think it just might be limited because its a 240mm aio. But I don't know and just want to make sure I don't have a faulty CPU nor AIO.

CPU is fine, AIO is just marginal for a chip on the level of the 5800x.

Thanks, I might try it out soon need to do a bit more research but now I know that it is actually normal, I am a bit more calm.
