Need a fast answer on CPU temps?

I set up my first PC this weekend and had a few questions about the CPU temps. When the machine isn’t in use and just sits on the desk, the readings hover between 36°C and 47°C, sometimes reaching mid-50s or higher. Even when browsing with Discord and File Explorer open, the temps stay similar. I haven’t checked them in games except for Skyrim Special Edition, where they stayed stable during character customization, with occasional spikes to the mid-60s. My concern is whether these readings look normal or if they’re too high. The Ryzen 5 3600 paired with a Master Hyper 212 cooler seems adequate, but I want to be sure.

When idle times aren't an issue, everything else works perfectly. They do.

Your temperatures are within expected ranges for your CPU.

Those are decent resting temperatures, my CPU usually stays near 52°C with an AIO unit.

Thank you for your message. Your old desktop from 12 years ago was a built-in PC, which means everything about it is quite different now. This setup feels new compared to what I’m used to.
