I've checked the situation and noticed the temperatures rise significantly during idle compared to when the system is active. Many users report similar issues with high idle temps even though performance remains stable. Regarding your 3000-series chip, you might want to confirm the exact model and specifications, as some newer chips can handle higher idle loads better. The 120mm AIO setup seems standard, but if you're using an NHD-15, ensure it's compatible with your cooling solution. Consider checking fan settings or adding more airflow if needed.

It's because the voltage and clocks are boosted as if someone had a sugar rush, eager to perform at their peak. After applying a load, it stabilizes to its intended position.

No need to worry, the balance on the windows will improve performance. I used a stock cooler with stock settings for years and it kept around 30-40°C. I didn’t experiment with power-saving modes since it didn’t seem needed. It seems there might be a mix-up—sometimes it can spike higher, but usually it stays near 40°C. With the stock cooler at that temperature, it definitely looks like the settings or cooling are off. There’s more to it than just the cooler itself, like case fans and speeds. This definitely needs a discussion in a thread, because you can’t just increase fan curves without proper context. Also, idle temps don’t match YouTube averages.

It seems unusual for the Ryzen 3000 line to behave this way. You mentioned it’s not about needing help, just curious—just checking if this is typical. The difference between idle time on a desktop versus YouTube was minimal.

watching yt isn't too complicated, it's just a simple job. I suggest using faster fans and setting the power plan to "balanced."
