Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Could you please mention the BIOS version for your motherboard? OS used(version if Windows 10)? Ambient room air temps? Case make and model and airflow inside the case(fan number and orientation).

I wish I had more to share, but I'm not that familiar with Ryzen - just some bits and pieces I've read.
It's supposedly a quirk exclusive to the 5800X. The other 5000 cpus behave the same, but only the 5800X is as wild with it's temperature spikes.

As a test, find a way to have the radiator and fans in "free air". You could try something like lay the case on the side, side panel open, dismount the radiator and see if you can leave it somewhere outside the case. Then go run something like CineBench 23. This is to take the case setup out of the equation as much as possible and make sure the cooler itself is working properly.

Another thing to check is to make sure the TIM covers most of the IHS. You can dismount the CPU side for a quick check. You do not have to re-apply TIM if you do this.
