Sometimes it goes up to 75c when idle, and then goes back down (prob windows stuff)
doesnt seem normal though, when its not 40~ on idle

Check 3 things make sure your cooler is sitting even. How much and the type of thermal paste applied, and ram as well as things running how many apps do you leave open? Ive never heard of your cpu cooler whats it rated for?
I looked up your cooler its a above stock cooler but its not rated well for the higher end ryzen cpus. They do run hot . Idle under a good aio or air cooler ranges from 46 55c. Gaming it should be up around 74 85c . Some chips can handle bieng up at 90c but that makes me nervious so try to keep the temp in the mid 80c. Im running a noctua D15. With the fans all the way up. And im averaging 46c idle to 76c so far during gaming. I have the same case u do.
