So i overclocked my cpu to 4ghz and my temps while browsing seem to be around 35-45 degrees, I ran heaven benchmark maxed out and the temps were showing me 70+ on the benchmark but on ryzen master it was only showing between 40-50 degrees. What one is right? (I think its ryzen master but I'm lost at this stuff)

Setup:
GTX 1060
R5 2600 OC to 4GHz
Corsair 8GB 2400mhz
MSI X470 Gaming Plus
Noctua NH-D15s
Corsair 300R Case
2 Case fans that came with my case

Thinking about that now it makes a lot of sense lmao, I feel really dumb right about now. Do you have any recommendations for bench marking software to test out my cpu on or is heaven a pretty good one?

Use Ryzen Master to monitor idle, load & benchmark temps. You could Try HWmonitor (make sure you use the latest version) and see if that's close to what your getting on Ryzen Master. I like HWmonitor as it's easy to use and records your min/max temp however I haven't used it with a Ryzen CPU, only Intel and older AMD CPU's (X4 965/850).
