Question on Ryzen 5 5600x upgrade
Hello, your results from the OC and the stress test seem normal. The temperatures stayed within a safe range, and there were no signs of overheating.
It's quite impressive, isn't it? The temperatures are getting a bit too high, especially if your CPU isn't powerful enough, it could become unstable. You probably won't be running all cores at full capacity often. For gaming or video editing, you'd generally want temperatures around 60-70 degrees, which should keep things stable.

I don’t think about bragging, but I’m really concerned because this is my first desktop PC after years of using a laptop. I’ve been looking up advice and talking to experienced users so I don’t ruin my new setup. You’re completely right about the temperatures—averages around 60-70°C. I’ve played cp77 at full settings and the peak was 71°C. The main worry now is my manual OC, which stays at a maximum clock speed of 4.6GHz even when idle, with the balance power plan active. Is there a solution to this issue, or should I just keep it like this? I’m also worried about potential CPU wear.
I would be thrilled after 15 minutes of that specific Prime test. Now you should act a considerate person and stop discussing how parts that haven't been released since November are doing so well. No, fair play mate, good to hear—it's the card I hope to get myself before this summer.
I didn't mean to show off, but I really appreciate being able to get one, I hope you do too!
Don't stress about the Ryzen CPU's manual overclocking—it only increases when cores are in use. Using AMD's "Ryzen master" tool lets you check each core's speed. As long as your core voltage stays below 1.325v, your CPU should last longer. Overclocking just affects stability, not lifespan; a voltage of 1.275v is safe. If you notice random shutdowns, it might be unstable at that speed and voltage. Overall, the system seems stable so far.
P.S. Consider switching to an enhanced power plan for better performance. Having extra power headroom is always beneficial. But if your current plan works fine, why not keep it?
