While playing Pax Dei the front of my case feels quite warm. Is an SG05 not sufficient for the CPU in SIG? I own a Noctua NH-L9x65, a Premium Low-Profile CPU Cooler (65mm, Brown).
For reference, 195F is 90C. OP, if you're going to list temperatures, do them in celcius as they are the agreed upon unit for measuring computer temps, almost no one on here can read Fahrenheit in relation to CPU temps without converting it to C themselves. It's like giving a car's fuel efficiency in mm 2 , it's not technically wrong, but no one knows what you're talking about. Having an MMO get the CPU up to 90C isn't that unheard of, they tend to be more CPU heavy and that's not an amazing CPU cooler. Besides, Ryzen 5000 is designed to run at redline for most of its life, so it's not that abnormal for it to be running at 90C. If it gets above that, then I'd start to worry, but as it is now I wouldn't really care that much.
Justrt wanted this to help maintain a cooler temperature. The current unit warns against overclocking. I assumed it wasn’t enabled unless the motherboard supports it by default. ID-COOLING IS-55 is a black CPU cooler with a slim profile, 57mm height, featuring 5 heatpipes and a slim fan designed for Intel LGA1700/115X/1200 and AMD AM4/AM5 systems.
The common advice to avoid overclocking is not applicable here. The main point is that the 5800X isn't built for high performance cooling like the NH-L9. It might be safe to let it run slightly above its maximum temperature and allow it to throttle, which could help lower temps. If you're aiming for cooler operation, you could try reducing its power draw in the BIOS to around 65 watts and test the results.
