Hi!

To start of my problem, here are my full specs.

MOBO: ASUS B450-F ROG STRIX
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: RX 5700 XT
PSU: Cooler Master 650W 80+ Gold
RAM: Corsair 16GB 3200MHZ
CASE FANS: 3 Intake at the front and 2 exhaust on top and 1 exhaust at the back. All 120 Fans
CPU Cooler: HYPER 212 Black Edition

So, I've started playing borderlands 3 again and I noticed that my CPU temps were a bit too high at some points. Most of the times it is in the 60 range but than it jumps to 70-75 and than back to the 60's. I have nothing overclocked and my room is not on the hot side of rooms. Also in Valorant i've noticed 60 degrees max for my CPU, Is this normal? It is a very light game so why does it get 60 degrees? My brother runs a Ryzen 3 2200G with the stock cooler and it doesn't even touches the 60's. I understand that it might be because it's not as good as mine but still, he uses the stock cooler and gets way better temps. Can someone help me out on this? ( I use MSI Afterburner to monitor all my stats)

It's normal for Ryzen 3000. Get used to it. It's behavior is different from Intel cpus, as well as the 2200G in your bro's PC; it can't really be compared to them.

Yeah that's what I was thinking as well, It was just very annoying because everytime it went to 70 it has this huge fan speed increase, I played arround with the fan curve and now that's solved. :)
