Anyone else having high idle temp on the Ryzen 5800x? My CPU has been running way above 40c even after uninstalling any updates or drivers (ryzen master, chipset driver). I run a EVO 212 cooler and the PC usually sits around 40c even with a great amount of tabs open.
I tested temps with Cold War on performance level settings and it hits 75c now. I've read 5800x does run higher vs other cpus but I haven't really changed anything on my PC. Anyone have the same issue?
Ah seems right actually (note: Have 5800X so can verify). With PBO on, it can be as bad if not worse. Note that I'm on a Scythe FUMA 2 and while its not like Liquid Cooling, it can in fact get close. If you can, wait till CTR 2.1 next week to utilize the Hybrid OC with max limits and you should notice in lower performance-needs that it will run cooler. If you wanted an idea between all of the methods to achieve performance while staying cool, here is a youtube link that goes over it. Turn on… See More
