[SOLVED] Amd Ryzen 5 3600 temp

[BVleu]

Hello,

I recently upgraded some of my computer parts such as my motherboard, ram and processor. I purchased an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 series and I am loving it I am using the stock cooler and my temperatures seem to spike randomly from lets say 36 to 50 then down again.

I am a novice when it comes to building computers and when I was installing the processor I think I may have spread the thermal paste around and lifted the fan up from the cpu a few times I was told this could cause air bubbles.

Should my temperature being doing this? room temperature is around 20c or below.

Yes it's normal.

Yes it's normal.

Is it worth me using a different type of thermal paste? as I am using the stock paste it is provided with i have got thermal grizzly paste and thermal paste remover/applier stuff here i ordered to apply to my processor.

Have you installed the AMD Chipset Drivers and chosen the AMD Ryzen Balanced Plan ?
If not, do that and set it like this:

That should help keep your temps down a bit.
