I recently installed a Ryzen 5 2600 and realised that CPU temp goes from 42-52 C or sometimes 42-60 C whenever opening apps e.g. Spotify, Dropbox, YouTube videos. This never used to happen on my i5, which ran at a stable 38-48 C when performing the same tasks. So I would like to know if this is normal, and why exactly Ryzen chips do this and Intel ones do not? Thanks
