High temperature surges observed at 3900x points
Hello, I assembled this setup using a Ryzen 9 3900X and an ASUS Prime X570-P. The cooler uses the thermal paste provided with it (possibly incorrectly applied). I’m experiencing consistent temperature spikes during idle or gaming sessions—specifically in Eve Online—and this is causing frequent frame drops. Could this be due to the thermal paste application, or is it typical for this CPU/motherboard configuration? Also, could the issue stem from not properly connecting the 4-pin EPS power cable, even though I have an 8-pin PSU? My Corsair Powerline RX480 8GB is a PowerColor Red Devil model.
Only Ryzen Master provides perfect tracking for Ryzen. Afterburner fails to do so.
