High temperatures during Ryzen 5 3600 usage
When temperatures hover between 80-90°C during gaming, it's acceptable. To improve cooling, consider installing a new cooler—either an air cooler or a Liquid AIO Cooler—or use Ryzen Master as a temporary solution. In profile 1, lock your cores and adjust the voltage to 1.10 instead of 1.25. This change helped lower temperatures from around 20°C while gaming.
I understand, I've seen both positive and negative opinions about the stock cooler, and I know it tends to run hot. Appreciate the input!
In this situation, despite its aesthetic appeal, the design doesn't allow for good airflow. It's typical to experience elevated temperatures in such setups, and a stock cooler usually performs better. The case functions optimally with a negative pressure configuration. If you're using an AIO, ensure it has at least 140mm of tubing to connect to the top for exhaust purposes.
