[SOLVED] Problem with Ryzen 5 3600 temperatures (stock fan) with B450M pro4

Hello folks, I just build a new PC (my first ever). While running bench stress test with cpu fan cooler. CPU temp went up to 95 degrees in a matter of secs. 10 mins later it peaked to 105C. After spending a few hours on reddit/forums. I came to a solution to lower the CPU voltage offset to -0.1v. I used ASROCK software tuning CPU temps were ideal a solid stable (69~70)C (Ran it for 2 hours) However, when I edited the offset voltage to the same value from the BIOS settings the temps were lower than before (but still very high). (high 80s in less than 10 mins).

I used AIDA 64 for stress test and cupid HWmoniter to check the temperature values. mother board/SSD/GPU are all working fine with no issues. The motherboard came with the latest BIOS version installed. Idle temperatures didn't differ much were (50~60) and came down to (40~50) which I think is still a litter bit high, but I care about under load for now. I am using the stock cooler and set it to max at all times from BIOS.
Anyone knows why the offset voltage settings are working on the software but not on the BIOS ones aren't? Is there another way to guarantee setting the offset voltage before windows bootup, in case anything happened to A-tuning software?

Build:

-AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor

-ASROCK B450M Pro4

-16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 -Corsair LPX (Ryzen optimized version)

TLDR: CPU temp is too high (105c peak). lowering offset voltage from ASROCK tuning software solved the issue. but setting the same offset voltage from the BIOS settings did minimal differences

There is no need to change CPU settings if the temps are high.
There have been tomany reports of the stock cooler on r5 3600 not doing well what its designed for.
The only good solution to this is to buy a good aftermarket cooler,so whats your budget?

Oh God! I am kinda broke my budget already. I was supposed to get a GTX 1660ti but greed for RTX 2060 cuz it was only 20$ higher. What do you recommend that would do just fine?
On a side note: Don't you think the temperature numbers are too high even for a bad cooler?
