Are you applying thermal paste? Ensure the cooler is installed properly. The pump usually produces a sound, and loud or clicking noises may indicate a problem. Consider updating your BIOS to the latest version and then reverting to the recommended settings. Additionally, install the X570 chipset drivers from AMD, as they offer power plans optimized for Ryzen processors, which the standard Windows drivers don’t provide.
It seems the cooler needs to be placed correctly. You're correct that I haven't updated the BIOS or adjusted the chipset. Appreciate the clarification—I'll give it a shot ^^
