Ryzen 7 3700X person,

I just started up my computer today, but i notice my cpu temperature is looming around 60C while nothing doing much and usual things i do which lands around 29C!~40C normally.

It unclear if my latest Windows 10 64-Bit Update might messed with the hardware inside my computer
?
What did i do wrong here?
 
Solution
Nothings dangerous obviously, but certainly not ideal.

I don't see why Microsoft can't get it together and screwing up ryzen performance with every update.
I have an OCed 3900x that seems to keep temps to less than 75 with the stock cooler. I wouldn't suspect the cooler being inadequate just yet. Check for CPU usage when temps get high to see what's going on as others have suggested.

It usually goes around 29 C to 41C 53C the casual task now it like around 60C 66C
