Question Ryzen 7 3700x

[Gaeflin]

Dear Forum colleagues,

got X470 MSI Gaming board + Ryzen 7 3700x, the issue are temps. Cooling is provided by silentium NAVIS 240AIO.

In Bios the PBO is set to auto.

Temps: 60C

Would you mind what to do?

Kind regards,
Karel

Just to be clear, this is at idle? Screenshot (powers etc) would suggest so, but possible this was right after you ended a stress test.

Which case are you in?
Have you remounted the cooler to ensure it's not just improper mounting pressure?

60 isnt too bad but unless u know what you are doing switch from OC mode into normal , run prime 95 too see if its stable and not overheating - thermal throttling or just shutting down , and, if it is (it ll go up easiely up to 80)... then review your cooling options. As Barty1884 said might be improper seating / pressure or, maybe, low quality thermal component between the copperplate and the CPUdie.

Yeah this is in windows. It is kinda weird, that on iddle it boosts to 4.25 all core.

Silentium NAVIS 240 and thermal component is arctic.

Had that happening with some OEM Laptops that lacked Intel thermal framework and the participant part of it. would throttle like crazy too under heavy load without it.

ceramique or silver or something similar?

ARCTIC MX-4 2019 Thermal Compound

Amd I think has something similar, doest hurt to update chipset drivers just in case.

I would check task manager and find out what is running that is causing your CPU to Boost to 4.25 GHz.
Idle should look like this:

Also what Power Plan are you using ?
I strongly suggest that you use the AMD Ryzen Balanced Power Plan set like this:

Will try to flash bios.

There was set max perfomance. Changed it to AMD ryzen balanced. Will try to reinstal chipset drivers.

PS
Ignore my EDC, TDC and PPT limits shown in Ryzen master because they are set high by a PBO Setting in my Asus X470-F BIOS (PBO set on Level 3 OC) that is not present on other MB's.

OK, so bricked my bios yesterday, had to unsold my chip and to flash it today :-D. However the peaks are 4,3Ghz, CPU usage is around 2-4%, running around 3,7-4,3Ghz. Removed my AIO cooler, mounted the stock one, honestly the teps are lower by 4°C.
