    [SOLVED] Weird ryzen 5 2600 temperatures

    Hey guys. So today I built my new pc and once I downloaded CPUID I noticed something. My ryzen 5 2600(stock cooler) is running at 51-52 degrees idle, but while gaming it never passes 70 degrees. Why is the idle temperature that high? I have a b450 tomahawk, don't know if that helps.
