Hello,
It’s late at night and my first post so sorry if this gets long winded. I decided to upgrade from a 2600 to a 5800x. I kept my Asus x470 prime-pro, Corsair Vengeance 2x8 (3200), and evga 650w. I bought a meshify 2 compact and a Deepcool LS520 to just freshen up my setup. After throwing it all together in the bios I was sitting at 60C. I’m figuring that isn’t the temp you want to see in bios at all. I put it in eco mode and it went down to a whopping 59C. I didn’t apply more thermal paste since I figured the pre-applied paste from the LS520 would be suffice. When I checked if it was seated and making contact it seemed like it was fine (I could be wrong as I am tired). Is the cooling not enough or is there something I’m not thinking of/wrong about?
Thanks.
