I recently built a PC. This was my first time using Ryzen and an AIO (specs below).
Upon first boot, CPU temps in BIOS were higher than expected. They started at 51 and gradually went to 57-60c. I installed Windows and checked Ryzen Master and then closed it and tried HWinfo. Idle is generally between 50-60c in both apps. Sometimes spiking over 70 opening browser, etc. I ran Cinebench R23 multi-core and it resulted in a temp of 85-87c and 18172 score. I turned off PBO and it still hit 85c in Cinebench with idle around 50c. Coolant temp was 35c during test.
I redid thermal compound because I originally used the preapplied stuff, it did not seem to have a noticeable effect on temps. I also reversed fan directions. The case has high airflow and temp of everything else (including GPU in games) is quite low/average so I don't think this is a case issue.
Room temp is 27c.
I see elsewhere people saying they get much lower temps with this CPU/AIO combo. I don't understand why I can't. Other than potentially replacing the AIO, how do I determine why?
