I switched to a 5600 and for some reason it's running at full CPU usage even when idle. I understand the 5600 should be better since my Cinebench score with an overclocked 9600k was about 7000, while mine is around 11000 with PBO.

Are you using built-in windows? Consider switching to a different power plan. I've noticed that some custom windows show 100% idle time all the time.

Have you performed a new Windows setup? Moving from Intel to AMD without a clean installation presents significant difficulties for Windows.
