Hi, I already knew this site but I never saw the need to create an account until today for this case

In short, I bought this pc 1-2 months ago, i adjusted the curve of my fans a little and everything was perfect, but I noticed something strange in the last days, the temperatures in idle increased compared to the previous weeks, from being 35-40 degrees to be 50-55 degrees, I see it very strange because when I'm playing the temperatures did not change, the maximum I got playing was 67 degrees, and the speed of my fans in idle were always at 30%, sooooo I read some forums and they say that this temperature is normal at idle, but that temperature jump compared to a few days ago catches my attention because i dont have that temperatures just a few days ago, so thats it, any comments, advice or help will be welcome, thank you very much and take care!!


Some postscripts:
-The temperature in my country in these weeks was always between 20-30 degrees
-The same happens with the cpu, 50-60 degrees in idle but almost the same while playing (60-65)

There you have some screenshots that may help

----- MY PC ------
GPU: AsRock Phantom Gaming AMD RX 570 Series
CPU: Intel i3 9100F 3.60 ghz
RAM: 1x16gb Ballistix 2400
PSU: SATE PRO 580-500W
Motherboard: Asus Prime H310M-R R2.0
Stock Cooler from the CPU (i3 9100F)
Case: SATE K-372 (It has 3 frontal fans)
 
Solution
sorry for answering a little late

using or not Radeon Software, the temperatures had never been so high, and I don't think I have adjusted anything in the bios because in the HWInfo it also shows me the speed of the fans, in Idle I always leave them at 30%, but what kind of problems did this software bring you? to consider
It would hardly ever run my profile I was setting for my GPU Fans it created more of a hassle than it provided. Radon Software is buggy IMO For me. GPU fans wouldnt spin and cause idle temps to reach 45 sometimes 50 because no air flow whatsoever. Once I downloaded asus gpu tweak II again and ran my profiles off that I was much happier.

HAve you checked TASK MANAGER to see what is going on?
 
You are using Radeon Software to adjust fans?? Don't use that. Download something else to adjust your fans. Did you Adjust any curve settings in your bios? Radeon Software for me has many problems. I use Asus GPU Tweak II but thats bc i have an asus GPU

I will definitely try something like that, by the way, my temperatures have dropped dramatically in the next few days in idle, I did not do anything special or I think so, but it seemed very strange anyway, thanks for the help.
