I have a ryzen 5 5600G, while using cinebench it hits about 80 degrees while using the stock cooler, idk if its good enough for my workload (photoshop, illustrator, and some games)

(Note, ill add the cinebench score when im doing doing my errands)

80c is totally safe temperatures during a 100% load like cinebench.

If you dont see higher temperatures than this during your workloads, you are more than safe 馃檪

No Problem 馃檪

AMD say that the max temp for the 5600G is 95c but we like to keep CPU's under that of course.

80c is still well within safe limits so if you sometimes see temps up to 85c its still okay 馃檪

It's fine, but the stock cooler isn't very good and quite noisy, you could get a way quieter PC by buying any $20 cooler

Okay, i am back and my CPU has increased temps, it now hits slightly over 85 degrees. too be fair i did change the profile on Ryzen master because my pc struggles on some tasks (photoshop, illustrator, etc.) i heard that Curve Optimizing can lower temps and make your CPU boost slightly higher. do you think i should enable it, or should i bring my CPU back to factory settings?

85c is still within safe limits and I wouldn't worry about it.

There are very cheap coolers on the market that will significantly improve cooling for not a lot of money.

You can always try to do some Curve Optimizer if you want, remember that it might not be stable if you go push too far 馃檪

But it will just crash and you can set a different CO that is stable.
