CPU Temperature

[SpiritWolfy]

So i've been upgrading my for mopst of the day from an AMD FX 6300 to an AMD Ryzen 1700x and well my Corsair H75 doesn't have a bracket for AM4 so i've had to make do with the bracket I have and my cooler I guess doesn't sit on it properly  so my temps are like 95 degrees Celsius. Anyone got any ideas on how I can resolve this temporarily whilst I wait for my CPU bracket to arrive ;-;

Wait or use the stock cooler if you bought that version

So spirit, I also have the Ryzen 1700x. The 1700x and 1800x both run 20c lower than what they report. AMD did this so the fans would basically work harder then needed to keep the chip using XFR and boost.

 

I had a similar problem. What I did is used zip ties to hold it flush until my bracket arrived. Rubber bands can also work.

I'd like to confirm that is it every 1700X and 1800X processor that displays the temperature 20 degrees higher or just most of them?

I've been waiting a month for my AM4 bracket from Corsair, though it's supposed to be shipping out soon.  In the meantime, my 1800x has been working fine with an FX stock cooler.  If you can get something like that or an aftermarket that doesn't have it's own bracket, you should be able to get by on air cooling until you can acquire the AM4 replacement bracket.
