Your Ryzen 9 3900X is overheating.
I've observed my CPU getting quite warm lately, especially when I'm using Discord, Steam, and intense games. Usually it stays around 52-65°C during idle, but sometimes it spikes to 75-82°C. In games it rarely exceeds 75°C, though it can hit 82°C occasionally. I've applied new thermal paste thinking it was the problem, but it still runs hot. The noise I hear seems like air being drawn in rather than a fan issue. Are these temperatures typical for my setup?
They tend to run a bit warmer than expected. Based on what you shared, it seems there could be some air trapped inside your AIO.
