CPU too hot or normal?
Hello guys, not sure if my PC temps are normal or if something’s wrong with my cooling setup.
I’m using a Ryzen 7 5700X, and when I play Helldivers 2 or other AAA games, my CPU temps usually go into the low to mid 80s °C. I recently upgraded from a Cooler Master air cooler to a Thermalright Peerless Assassin, so I expected lower temps.
Another thing I noticed is that when I first boot up my PC, the CPU sits around 60°C for the first 5–10 minutes before dropping down to around 40–50°C idle.
Current setup:
- Ryzen 7 5700X
- RTX 5060 8GB
- MSI B550M
- Thermalright Peerless Assassin
- Cooler Master MWE Gold 750W
Are these temps normal for the 5700X?
PS. I also did some reapplication of thermal paste.
