I thought my cooler installation is not right. So it’s normal to reach ~90 degree on stock cooler?
Only under heavy, sustained load in a poor airflow situation.

what programs do you use to see?
HwMonitor?
Ryzen Master is the most accurate
95c is when Ryzen chip starts to thermal throttle so any temperature under 95c in a load should be fine, I would probably expect around 70-80c for a hyper 212 under heavy load.I've that but what do you see in there that tells you what's going on?
Bought cooler master 212
What's normal temperature and what's abnormal?
Bought 3 more fans for this.
Thinking of doing 3 in flow and 2 out flow thus creating positive air flow

Hyper 212 should be able to handle 4.2ghz all core decently. Although Ryzen 3000 chips do not have much overclocking headroom and the performance gain is minimal and since you are playing at a higher resolution of 4K, you will be more GPU bound and CPU starts to matter less as compared to 1080P.Given this cooler, possible to oc to 4.2 and play csgo at 4k60?

From this review, games at 1080P only saw an increase of 4.5 FPS MAX when their Ryzen 3600 was overclocked to 4.3 Ghz all core at 1.43v
Seems like Ryzen Zen 2 runs very hot.
I have a ryzen 3600 with Noctua U-12S in a Fractal Design Focus G Mini. Idle temps around 50, ranges from 48-55. Once in a while will spike to 60 for 1 sec or less.
Under load/stress test will go up to 70ish.
From what I see, even though I dont OC most of the cores will run at 4ghz at idle.

So actually pretty useless to overclock if all you do is just multi task with chrome on multi display....


Anything above 1920x1080 is more GPU bound. If you are playing at 4k, you better have a 2080Ti.
That's not "very hot". Especially when compared to Intel.
You should also make sure to install the Chipset Drivers, then set your Windows Power Plan to "Ryzen Balanced".


Recommend the hyper 212 as its probably the cheapest and most reviewed cooler out there.Did you install Msi Dragon Centre?
Check under control panel > power settings. Did it auto switch to Ultimate Performance? Try select Amd Ryzen Balanced.
Why 2080ti?
What’s wrong with MSI Dragon Centre? Does it cause rising temp?
