    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    If it is enabled, it is enabled by default. I haven't changed anything in this section of the BIOS. PBO is not enabled as far as I can see.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    Well, I swaped the Noctua U12S for a Noctua D15, a dual-tower, two-fan cooler. However I still see package temp of 93 to 95C and the CPU clocking 200MHz over its nominal frequency. If D15 isn't enough, I don't think even AIO water cooling would do. I think that the package temp reading is off by...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    I did another experiment. The cooler was set to ramp up to 100% when the temp reaches 75C as the board sees it. At that point HWInfo reported 95C and the CPU worked at 3.9 - 4.0GHz. I set the cooler to not go to full speed at all - max 50%. To my surprise the CPU clocked 3.8GHz, the board still...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    From what I've read, it should have been removed. Maybe it is some board bug or peculiarity. The cooler does not seem hot to the touch. No throttle. The board reports the lower temp. If I manage to borrow some heavy weight cooler, I'll try if it is able to bring these 95c down. Your Ryzen3700x...

    Review Biostar X570GT8 Motherboard Review: Affordable M.2 Excess

    The fan curve is adjustable via the BIOS. It can be turned off at lower temperatures.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    Well, that is a great idea. I'll dig in the biostar bios to see if there is an equivalent setting. Thanks for spending time to help me. BTW the BIOS HW Monitor reports the lower of the two readings.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    From what I observe, the fan control follows tdie from hwinfo with an offset of about 20c. I have set the curve to 100% at 75c. The fan goes to 100% at tdie of 95c.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    Indeed! The question is what better cooling when even a hairdryer style fan stuck into the fins of the cooler can't push the temp down from 95C. If it is really 95C. Opening the case I've let the hot air go out. I've provided copious amounts of cool air to the cooler. It is still 95C. BTW I...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    Let me report the results of the little experiment I did. Opening the case resulted in the CPU getting closer to 4000MHz instead of 3900MHz. The temp did not change - 95C. The I stuck a handheld fan blowing at full speed at the cooler's intake fan. The air at the handheld fan's intake seemed...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    With all the quality fans for intake, I thought the airflow was enough. I'll try the open case and blower thing and I'll report the results.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'll make some experiments. But this happen even when only the CPU is loaded and the front fans blow cool air right into the Noctua. Even the idle temps are 40-50C with the CPU doing just the background Windows stuff. Do you think a beefer air cooler will help? I...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    All settings are at auto. I've just set one of the XMP memory profiles. At 94C the clocks of all cores are between 3875 and 3900 MHz steady, except for some blips of 4000MHz on some of the cores. I've been staring at the screen for 10 minutes now :). Ryzenmaster reports 95C, 79% PPT of 142W, 95%...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    I'm wondering could the CPU really be working at 94C at 100% load for hours above its nominal frequency. I use Fractal Design R5 with two stock 120mm intake fans, 120 mm exhaust fan (all working at full speed now), a Noctua U12S with two fans, and two intake corsair ML120 at the bottom which...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    Both readings in HWInfo show 94C steady after 30 min of full load (fold@home). The CPU happily works just as steady at 3,9GHz - all cores. For a few seconds package temp in HWMonitor goes over 102C without any CPU throtling.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3900X temperature too high

    According to Ryzen Master the core voltage hovers around 1.29-35V at full CPU load. My main concern is the huge difference between the reported package temperature and the TMPIN0. The CPU doesn't behave like it's on the verge of throtling. Even at package temp of 95C the CPU is above its nominal...
