So I finally got all my parts after saving for a long time and went to start benchmarking after I built my system, I'll post my full spec list down below. Anyway the GPU runs with no problems and maintains an average of 60c under full load with max settings on Heaven benchmark. Its a 3060 so no surprise there. However when I went to benchmark and stress test my CPU using cinebench r23 my cpu under all core testing had a maximum temperature of 94.8 and an average of 85.6c which is just too hot for me. Anything over 75 is pushing it. It was at base clock of 3.6 mhz which is stock for this cpu. I am using the stock cooler which doesn't work well enough when overclocking but when you're just stress testing at base speeds it shouldn't be any problem right? at least that's what Ive heard in almost all the reviews Ive seen. In the future i am going to overclock but I'm upgrading to an aio cooler in a few months when Ive saved some more money. Ive looked all over online where it says to upgrade your Mobo's bios which I have and that the auto settings for voltages and clock speeds are too high but if I do any custom tuning with speeds or voltages the pc will immediately shut down when put under any stress because it hits temps of 105+. I have a theory it might be the thermal paste that came with the cooler so I want to buy some high quality aftermarket thermal paste tomorrow and see if that helps at all but I am stumped as to why it would run this hot. Ive seen people with the same cpu and cooler run cinebench and get a max temp of 68c with all the same settings so what gives? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
