Hi
I've just installed a Ryzen 5 3600x with a Wraith Prism cooler. There is a 120mm fan blowing air out at the rear and one sucking air in at the side. At idle or just browsing the internet the tempearture is about 52C.
My question is, is that excessive with that type of cooler?

Regards Steve
 
Solution
This is normal. The temperature that's reported by the processor is typically the hottest thing in the processor and things tend to be shoved on one or two cores due to Ryzen processors having so-called "preferred cores"
