Just solved it. Start by entering your bios info and adjusting the Dynamic Vcore (DVID) to -0.15. Next, navigate to your power plan settings and click on advanced options for the Ryzen balanced plan. Set the maximum processor state to 99%. Now gaming temps are around 63°C. The boost frequency stays at 4.2 GHz, and cinebench shows no significant changes. Give it a try! Cheers
I only responded late since I found it through a Google search. The issue isn't that one core is warmer than the others. I assumed my Ryzen 5 3600x had a single faulty core, but it was just a misinterpretation. Temperatures are shown as overall values, not separate per-core readings. By comparing HWMonitor and HWInfo, I discovered those temp numbers correspond to specific sensors, not individual cores. If others encounter this, try using both tools together for clearer insights. My chip still runs hotter than ideal, especially on gigabyte boards. Hope this helps.
