Hello, I see you're experiencing higher than expected idle temps while gaming. Your current BIOS settings for CPU and fan speeds seem adjusted, but the temperatures still climb to 50°C or more. Based on your specs—Ryzen 3100, 16GB RAM, MSI B450 GPU—it's important to ensure fans are running efficiently. The rear fan (systemfan 1) and front fan (systemfan 3) should be balanced for optimal cooling. Since you're using MSI Afterburner, try tweaking fan curves to prioritize cooler speeds during idle and gaming. Let me know if you need further guidance!

70c is completely acceptable.

But don't worry, your idle temperature is normal at around 50°C.

Normally fine too. In either case, idle temperatures aren't important; load temps are. Updated August 21, 2020 by TofuHaroto

Idle doesn't really matter. Just means the fans are spinning slow. As long as your load temps are fine you are good.

Consider adjusting fan speeds to boost performance when temperatures reach 45-50°C.

It’s completely okay to feel this way—running is really good.

Sure, I can help with that. For temperatures around 50°C and 70°C, aim for fan speeds that balance cooling efficiency and noise. Start with moderate settings and adjust based on your specific needs.

Let it handle everything itself. If you truly wish to control it, adjust the components that maintain stability and silence.
