i've just manually overclocked my ryzen 5 2600 to 3.9ghz at 1.3125v on the stock cooler. My cpu goes up to about 70 degrees when gaming. i was wondering if i can manually set my cpu fan speed to max from the bios and not have issues on the long run. any suggestions on what i can do to lower the temps.
thanks for the help
 
70 degrees is well within spec and yes you can set the fans to max speeds in BIOS. Personally you are okay at a max 70 degrees C for gaming especially as you are overclocked. If you want to drop temps and you are using the wraith cooler that came with the CPU think about ugrading to a better cooler as that will drop temps at the top end..
