Hello guys
This is my build which I put together just last week: Ryzen 5 5600G, Gigabyte A520M DS3H, 2x8gb 3200 mhz RAM with heatsink, Antec 550W PSU, all in an ordinary tower. Win11 Pro x64.
Ever since I built it, the CPU fan has barely seen any rest. It's in constant whirring. I installed Gigabyte app centre information suite along with Core Temp to get to its rooot and the CPU temps reading (in both) were outrageous: 68-77 degrees C while idling, 80-85C if I opened any folder or the web browser. And the noise is terrible. How is this even possible. I mean, it's not demanding even for run down machines, much less for a build like this. I know something is wrong. The lowest temp I've seen is just 48C. Sometimes the temp is 80-82C in just idling.
The CPU is running with the stock cooler. It's got no thermal paste on. The guy who assembled it said on my enquiring that the stock cooler comes with thermal paste on and there's no need to apply it again.
I understand that this is not normal for any pc and I'm a little worried. I just want it to run normally.
At my end, I edited the System Fan 5 PWM-Temp curve in BIOS after watching a few youtube videos but to no avail.
I need help to fix this issue.
Thanks in advance.
PS: I don't game or edit stuff. I live in a tropical country but the day time temps where I live are stay at around 30-35C.
