Hello community!
I've just upgraded from Ryzen 3 1200 to Ryzen 5 1600x. I'm experiencing some temperature spikes. A nice to way to put it is like the CPU "overreacts".
Mobo is - ASUS A320M PRO4
CPU Cooler is - Cooler Master EVO 212
I'm currently running only 8GB of ram at 2133Mhz. My budget is quite tight so I'm approaching my upgrades slowly. I did not overclock and do not plan to.
My idle temperatures are pretty good 26C which makes me assume the cooler is mounted right with the right amount of thermal paste.
The thing im experiencing is .. for example while doing something simple like watching a youtube video the temperature is stable at 28C, but as soon as I just simply scroll the page down the CPU jumps to 39-40C. I mainly use my PC for Graphic Design work(Photoshop,Illustrator). I've done some quick tests with my normal workflow and some e-sport titles and the CPU doesn't go over 50C .. its close but it doesn't go over. Windows 10 is set up on Balanced Mode and minimum processor state is at 0%. Maybe my confusion comes by comparing temperatures to my previous CPU.
One thing I've noticed is that the clock speed doesn't go below 2.2Ghz at idle. I use Ryzen Master and HWmonitor for monitoring my temps.
So my questions are:
Is it normal that the clock speed stays at 2.2 Ghz at idle, because I've read some posts on reddit that peoples clock speed goes down to 1550 Mhz at idle. (Just like it was with my R3).
Are my temperatures normal, should I be worried?
I'm planning my second component upgrade to be my RAM(make it at least 16 gigs), I've read that the 1600x likes faster RAM. Is 2133Mhz good enough and will it make a big difference to bother going for something more than that(excluding gaming, I just use my PC for work)?
