[SOLVED] Ryzen 3600 safe temps

[M.AGamer]

Hello,I have noticed that my cpu temps now is around 77C max at 50% usage it spikes to 86C sometimes and get back to 77C so i wonder if that's safe?In winter it was like 70C max summer in my country is really hot 30C+

AMD says the maximum temps allowed for the 3600 is 95C. You still have wiggle room. At worst it'll just clock itself down until it reaches base speeds. However, if it goes below base speeds, that's a cause for alarm.

If you're really worried, you can always buy an aftermarket cooler if you're using the one that came with the CPU.

yea it downclock itself to 3950 sometimes 3900

In winter...

That's only natural, as the room ambient temp is also lower during that time of the year.

Your own room isn't going to be quite that hot...

I see around 15C in my room in the winter, and around 10C(give or take a couple Cs) higher than that in the summer.

That's still over the 3.6ghz base clock. So the cpu is boosting normally.
Lower temperatures will yield higher sustained boost clocks - to an extent; it doesn't scale infinitely. 5C lower may net you another 25mhz, for example.


If you're using the stock cooler, that result isn't unusual.
-Does your chassis have a side vent over the cpu? If not, do you have a rear and top(2 fan) exhaust set up?
-Have you tried playing with small Vcore offsets? For example, -0.01v or -0.03v.
If you've already tried both, a new cooler will certainly help lower thermals further.

Yes i'm using the stock cooler it starts with 60c when i launch the game with 4125mhz then after 30mins or so it heats up to 77c 3950mhz.
I have 4 fans 2 front 1 rear 1 top.
No i haven't ,I didn't touch the cpu voltage since i bought it.

What is the chassis?

Give Vcore offset a try. It can help lower thermals while not giving up performance, as long as you don't go too big on it.
Even a -0.01 offset may knock a few degrees off.

My case is Nzxt s340

Ah, the predecessor of the H500 series.
I got 2 ideas.
1)The already mentioned Vcore offsets.
2)Test with the front fans removed. This is a airflow strained chassis with a focus on negative pressure(with air cooled only setups). Adding fans in the front may hurt thermals here.

Aside from that, there's not much else but to replace the cooler if you can't get to a range you're more comfortable with.

I plan to replace it soon thanks for your advice anyway
