Question How to Reduce Very High Temps at Low Util on Ryzen 5 7600 (non X) ?

[crazyx3]

I have recently built a new PC with the mentioned processor, Gigabyte B650 Pro AX motherboard and Cooler Master ML240L V2 AIO. I stress tested the cpu on cinebench r23 and it was around 13.8k multicore @ 4.9GHz with temps not more than 85C with 2 consecutive tests. During gaming when cpu util was around 30-40% at 5.15GHz temps rise upto 80C within an hour. I'm tech savvy enough to go to the bios and make changes but not enough to know what changes to make. Any help is appreciated. I am afraid it might damage the motherboard VRM even if the rated temp is 95C. Yes I have removed the plastic peel of the AIO, turned on XMP, but didn't flash the motherboard.

You want to curve optimize the power offset. Did you get "Ryzen master" as part of Gigabyte's recommended software? Anyway, it's the simplest way to curve optimize, you only need to click on "per core" in the optimizer and click start optimizing, it testing each core across different voltage offsets to find the best settings, when it's done you click apply and it saves the offset to the BIOS so that you don't need to run the software again.

On my 7600x, it dropped the temperature by 15c while improving performance.

Is pump running full speed ?

Is pump running full speed ?

how do i check that?

It should show RPM at the header it's connected to. Most MBs have header called AIO_PUMP which is not adjustable and/or W_PUMP header that is.

nope, i thought the gigabyte software popup after first time boot to windows was bloatware. i'll look into it thanks

Yes i have connected the headers but how do I view the pump speed in windows

Use a program like HWinfo to monitor that and many other parameters

It was probably "Gigabyte control center" that it wanted to install, which is there to check for driver updates and to install a couple of other useful programs like Ryzen master, it also allows you to set fan curves, the RGB and some performance settings without being in the BIOS.
Anyway, you can just download Ryzen master without the control center if you want.
