Question Ryzen 5 3600 CPU high-temperature

[Zagreus #35345]

Hello everyone, my pc specs are :
Motherboard: Asus Prime B450k
GPU: RTX 2060 supermini
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
psu : corsair 750 gold

I had 1 bar 16g ram 2666 frequency and I decided to change it to 2 x 8 rams or 3600 frequency .
when I got the new 2 8 GB Rams, I opened up my PC, and I found out that the good lad who built my pc had put my ram under the CPU cooler ( since the ram is a little bit flat on top ) so it was blocked by the cooler and I had to remove the cooler to place the new rams, and I also rotated the cooler the other way so it won't block my rams anymore, after that when I turned on the PC I have noticed that the temperature was a bit high, I don't know if it is or I'm just imagining it, on bios, it's 66 Celsius and laggy ( always had been laggy dunno why ), when idle it sits on 45 to 50 Celsius and when I play some video games it goes sits between 75 and 86 Celcius, I'm using CPUID MHWMonitor to check on them, sorry for the long text, thank you for reading me and for your help in advance.

you don't mention much about your system-wide cooling setup.

there should be a direct flow of cool air aimed, at least somewhat, at the CPU cooler
and a direct flow of the air heated by the CPU aimed at an exhaust fan.

if the cooler has a fan that is now blowing up against a solid panel then that air may just be constantly recycled and become warmer and warmer all the time.
if it is aimed at a vented panel, but has no direct exhaust fan, then the effect could be similar.

just make sure the air from the cooler & graphics card is being properly exhausted and that there is plenty of cool air being brought in from intake fans.

The B450 chipset + IMC on the Ryzen 5 33600 can go to DDR4-3200MHz and anything higher would either mean in instability or high voltages or no-POST.

That being said, you forgot to mention the make and model of your cooler. In this regard, you should've posted images of your build and how it's oriented in your chassis. Some cases do not like it when you hamper with the airflow in a case(from front to back).

The last question that comes to mind is, did you reapply the thermal paste on your cooler after rotating it?

Link to your ram kit?

What is your ambient temp?

thank you for your reply , I have posted some pics , I think it's just some stock cooling

I didn't reapply the thermal paste

that is a BIG issue.
probably the cause of ~50% of your temperature increases, at least.

anyway, i would order a decent tower air cooler and install it properly with fresh paste.

this stock cooler shouldn't matter which way it is oriented. it just blows air down upon the heatsink and that air flows out upon the motherboard
but, i don't see how this little stock cooler could even be "over" the memory DIMM slots.
it seems to sit a few mm away from them and rotating 90° shouldn't really change the situation.

my real suggestion would be to find a discounted ATX board,
get a lower priced tower CPU cooler(that operates with a good heat dissipation),
add at least another exhaust fan to the top of the case,
and make sure you have at least a couple cool air intake fans in the front and bottom, if possible.

what case is this?

your first image appears to be quiet a bit dusty.
you may want to take the time to clean the entire system out while you would be accessing the internals when replacing or moving parts around.

thank you very much.
the little part that has "amd" was right on top of the previous ram, I couldn't remove it, so I had to take off the cooler to remove it and put the new ones.
at the moment I don't really want to invest in it, since I'm planning to upgrade motherboard /cpu in few months, I will go buy thermal paste today, If you have any advice about what to use to clean the previous thermal paste on the cooler and the CPU, and also what to use to remove the dust without damaging any pc parts. thank you very much for your help/time.
the case : Cooler Master MasterBox K501L

You haven't change paste after removing cooler ? First mistake. Use lint free cloth or tissue soaked in 95% isopropyl or any other alcohol to clean paste residue and apply new paste.

 

[Zagreus #35345]

thank you, is there some specific good paste I should look for?

 

[JohnBonhamsGhost]

is there some specific good paste I should look for?

the last type i bought was ProlimaTech PK-3.
works very well.

there have been a few articles by Tom's comparing/rating different brands.
you may be able to find one of those articles and compare what's available to you vs prices.

I should remove rams and graphic card before I try to reapply the thermal past right? to make it easy to screw the cooler back , it has a plate in the back that get screwed with.
any advice before could help, thank you.

Maybe only GPU. RAM shouldn't be problem-

I think you should use HWinfo instead

Free Download HWiNFO Sofware | Installer & Portable for Windows, DOS

Start to analyze your hardware right now! HWiNFO has available as an Installer and Portable version for Windows (32/64-bit) and Portable version for DOS.

but your temps are quite acceptable now.

thank you very much, I will get another fan to add it on top, and I'm leaving the case open at the , cause it's still hot here in Morocco, for example it's 10 am in the morning and it's already 3 degrees, it will get to 30 by mid day.
