Built a PC with Ryzen 5800x3d and rx 7700 xt. The back side of the build looks like this and the front side looks like this . I have seen several builds on youtube that has a very clean looking build but if you look at my build it has wires for the graphics card etc. that are hanging around and how much every I try I can't get it very clean. Wondering if I can do anything and if those wires will affect the airflow. The case has 3 front fans and one in the back. My computer is running at 37C stable and when I play cyberpunk it runs at 65. I get around 30 FPS in cyberpunk. Should I worry about the thermals?
 
I also have the 5800X3D, mine is under a crappy old Hyper 212 Evo. Your idle temps look good, and gaming temps will vary by game but yours look fine. I do not play Cyperpunk but in MSFS 2020 I run around 55F to 65F, in FFXIV it's around 45F to 50F. I wouldn't worry about it, the reports of how hot this CPU runs seem to be mostly overblown and more likely due to poor case cooling than anything specific to the CPU. Even under Cinebench R23 it only hits the low 80's. I was assured the 212 would never keep this thing cool. It's been fine. Go on and enjoy your build, sounds like a solid system.
