Hello guys,
i have this setup:
x570 asrock phantom gmaing 4
gtx 1080 ti strix
ryzen 9 3900x
750w psu
32 corsair vengeance 3000mhz

Iam using stock cooler, and idle temperature is 55-65, while its loaded it goes up nearly 100 C.
is this problem with cooler? (case is kinda hot inside with 3 intake and 1 out take cooler)

voltage of cpu is between 1.013-1.419.
should i worry about case cooling, voltage or cpu cooler .
ty in advance

Stock cooler isn't ideal for the 3900X at the time of that video - even less so now since the most recent bios updates now crank more voltage through these cpus(AMD's 'fix' for boost clock complaints).

Get a new cooler, like:
-Noctua NH-D15S
-be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4
-Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT
There are other alternatives, but if you're curious, ask away.

That cooler might not have been installed properly...even though not the best it should not reach 100 C with that fan configuration,
Try re-installing it.

If you want even better cooling the go with an aftermarket heat-sink like the Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B.

ty for response man.
i just checked that video and it gave him 20 c difference with different cooler. i guess stock cooler is the problem i will get new
 
Ty for advice
Another Ryzen 9 guy here with the same elevated temp problem, but I found evidence of an information problem instead of a cooling problem. Check your bios temps in comparison. I found that when I use NZXT CAM or Dragon Center the temps show the same, slightly erratic, elevated temperatures of 55-60C when idling. Ryzen Master shows 55 and is jumping around a fair range each update, +4, -2, -3, +2. When I do an immediate restart into BIOS without letting the system cool, the temp is at a constant 39C and stays in that range, +/- 1 degree as I watch for a few minutes. Which is what I expect. I believe something is interrupting quality signal for temps in the OS
