[SOLVED] My CPU temp is high

[CheezyMemes]

My CPU temp is 40 in bios and then windows it changes to 50 to 60 and will randomly shoot up to 70 then back down my CPU is ryzen 7 3700x and stock cooler fractal design meshify c case I redid the paste but still high

 

[rgd1101]

70 is fine

 

[CheezyMemes]

no it's not meant to be 70 at idle the CPU temp goes from 73 down to 60 constantly and repeats I can hear the fan constantly cranking up rpm then slowing down

 

[rgd1101]

did you check the usage?

 

[CheezyMemes]

yes we'll I did the thermal paste again and it idles now at 40 to 50 but when downloading it goes to 60 70 and around 5% usage

 

[Furzumz]

Did you apply the right amount of paste?

Is the cooler mounted properly?

 

[CheezyMemes]

Yeah cooling is mounted fine ill check the paste again and redo it

Newer Ryzen CPU's have high idle temperatures, that's normal. 79c max temp under load is perfectly safe and common among 3700x's

Tho stock coolers aren't all that great, its always recommended to get a better cooler. But as long as your temperatures aren't going anywhere near 95c then you should be fine.

As far as the noise goes...that's just honestly how these AMD stock coolers are. A decent aftermarket cooler should give you better temperatures and be much less noisy depending on what you go for

Stock coolers tend to be noisy

A decent aftermarket cooler is the way to go, it'll run much quieter and give you better temperatures depending on what you go with
