Question 3800X Temp and Core Clocks

[Nikko G]

Hi guys, recently upgraded my system with the Ryzen 7 3800X and a MSI MPG X570 Pro Carbon MOBO. My question is what software do you use to monitor the temperature as well as core clocks of the CPU? I have HWMonitor which I always used before and AMD Ryzen Master running and both softwares are showing different temperatures and core clock speed.

Ryzen master is the more accurate reader since it is designed specifically by AMD for AMD CPUs. HWInfo is good but is not always entirely accurate in the moment since fluctuations aren't recorded in time after every data list refresh.

You can also use MSI Afterburner which monitors both CPU, GPU, RAM, etc.

Temps seem to be crazy high with the stock Wraith Spire cooler, playing Battlefield V CPU reached all the way to 86C and Rainbow Six took it to high 70s low 80s.
