The Ryzen 5 1600 AF unexpectedly operates at maximum voltage and clock speed during idle mode.
You're experiencing a sudden jump in CPU temperature from around 30°C to full speed at idle. It's possible the cooler isn't providing enough cooling under load, or there might be an issue with the cooler itself. Check the fan speeds and ensure they're not stuck. Also, verify that your BIOS is set to the correct voltage and that the cooler is properly seated. If the problem persists, consider testing with a different cooler or consulting the manufacturer's support for further guidance.
