As the title says, I am getting 45C idle temps on my Ryzen 7 3700X with a Cryorig H7 Quad Lumi cooler (according to CoreTemp and CAM). What should I do?
I haven't tried reapplying thermal paste yet but I doubt that would cause a 10 - 20C drop.
 
Solution
In the summer, it is quite common to have 45C idle temps on Ryzen as Ryzen idles hotter than Intel CPUs usually.

My 1700X paired with a H100i V2 liquid cooler idles around the 42C range in the summer time. So it makes perfect sense that yours is 45C.

Don't worry about it, 45C is way below the 80ish Celsius safe temps anyways.

What's your temperature when under load? If your at 75C or under, you are good.

my 3900X idle at 36-38°C using a noctua NH-12A ( liquid metal paste ), gaming ( pubg) run at 57°C and doing tests like cinebench R15 75°C at max
