[SOLVED] Ryzen 5 3600 stuck at boost and temps at 80c

[emberrr_]

Hello, i built my PC today and i have a ryzen 5 3600. My temps have been between 70-80c because the clock speed it stuck at 4.1GHz. I've tried changing the minimum power state to 5% and enabling/disabling PBO in the bios yet nothing changes. Anybody know a fix to this?

guess that is all it took.

Try a clean install, if it still does it... we figure out how then.

follow this guide: https://forums.tomshardware.com/faq/how-to-do-a-clean-installation-of-windows-10.3170366/

will do, in the bios, I realized that PBO is set to auto but when i disabled it my CPU was still at boost but I did change the max temp threshold so while I try to fix this hopefully nothing that damages my CPU happens. and hopefully it is a driver fault and not the mobo.

Is Game Boost turned on in bios? its a minor overclock but it shouldn't have CPU running full speed all the time.

i don't get why it works fine in bios and safe mode but not windows after a clean install..

I see if anyone else can think of anything I may have missed

what are all the parts in the PC?

it appears i spoke too soon, my temps arent great but i think its more of my coolings fault but the clean install did fix the boost issue. just the windows compatibility thingy was running that made it boost then it went down to 2.2 when it had 0% usage. thank you for all the help

maybe invest in a better cooling set up for the CPU. I didn't even think to use the fan that came with mine and went AIO. CPU almost always same temp at idle.

what case have you got? helps if the heat gets sucked away from around CPU as fast as possible. I have too many fans in my case.

I have the case my cousin used a long time ago, at least 10yrs old idk the name. I have 3 fans in the case excluding the cpu cooler. Doesnt help that the fans are the ones that came with the case. I will invest in better cooling when i get spare money sometime.

Cool. My last case was 10 years old as well and if yours was a Silverstone Fortress FT02 I wouldn't be concerned about cooling anytime soon... but I doubt you that lucky

it should run cooler now its not at boost all the time
