I have just built a new system with:

Phanteks Enthoo Pro (Black - No Window)
Ryzen 2700x
MSI x470 motherboard + rtx 2070 armor
1 x M.2, 1 x SSD, 1 x HDD
32 GB (2x16gb Corsair vengeance) RAM

The problem I have is the high temps for the CPU using the stock Ryzen 2700x fan and my case set up.

At idle the temp is fluctuating between 40 and 50 celsius. At load I'm getting between 70 and 80 celsius.

I have 6 fans in my case.

Front = 1 x 200mm intake fan provided with case.
Top = 3 x 120mm outward facing Be quiet fans.
Rear = 1 x 140mm Be quiet outward fan - I replaced the one provided with case.
Bottom = 1 x140mm Be quiet intake fan.

1 - Are these 6 fans sufficient?
2 - Do I need to replace the Ryzen 2700x stock fan?
3 - Do I need to change the direction of any of my 120mm fans?
