91C with full load OC and Ryzen 5 3600
Hello everyone, I tried pushing the boundaries of my Cooler Master AIO by overclocking it to 4.3Ghz with an AMD Ryzen 5 3600. During a Cinebench test it reached 91°C at its peak temperature. My concern is whether that’s excessive—without a heavy workload, my system stays around 40-50°C based on the tasks I’m running. Apart from some drafting work, I don’t think gaming would demand such high heat.
He’s just a short distance from hitting the thermal limit on a six-core setup with a 240mm AIO. It looks like some adjustments might help stabilize performance. I’ve noticed many high-end models can handle 3600 revolutions per minute well, so this one seems a bit too warm.
Typical behavior of a stock cooler, likely thermal throttling before failure, as long as it maintains around 3600°Cb rating.
It seems I misunderstood the value of tjmax. It’s possible it was intended to be higher, like 100 or 105. Adjusting the temperatures a bit more would help. The main concern is his voltage usage, since that could affect sustainability.
