Hello, I recently played DOOM 2 and checked my temperatures out of curiosity. I noticed I was reaching 87 degrees Celsius! This prompted me to stop playing to check idle temps. The lowest CPU temperature I've recorded while nothing is running is 51 degrees, which feels quite high. During a stress test, the peak temperature reached was 90 degrees, but it never went higher. After that, I thought about reapplying thermal paste to the CPU to see if it would help, though the results remain unchanged. My CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600 purchased recently, and I'm using the stock cooler. I own a Phanteks case known for strong airflow, and I've heard the Wraith cooler is excellent. I haven't overclocked, so these temperatures are quite worrying. Any suggestions on why they're so high? Thanks, Aktarius

Your response addressed the issue directly. A higher-performance cooler is recommended.

You're experiencing stable temperatures with your cooler master hyper 212 black edition, but your 3600 CPU stays around 60°C even under heavy load, with occasional spikes near the low 70s.

Wraith Stealth isn't the best choice, and I wasn't aware the 3600 came with it. You should consider a better cooling solution.
