5600x running a little hot on the stock cooler.

[Zireth]

Hi I recently bought a system with a Ryzen 5 5600x which had the stock cooler installed.

under no load, it's running ~50 degrees idle and 70+ during gaming. I will also mention whenever I pull up youtube in google chrome, it'll take a good 2 minutes for it to fully load, while also putting a decent load on my cpu.

Should I be concerned? is there anything I could do (without buying anything) to fix this?

post system specs, you will get a better answer rather than just a guess.

Well it's a prebuilt so I'm not 100% certain on the exact specs but it's a powerspec g509.

As far as I know it's
Ryzen 5 5600x
stock cooler
ASUS B550 Micro atx board
16GB of ram without any heatspreaders
EVGA RTX 3060
a 500gb NVME drive
another 500gb NVME drive I pulled from a previous system,
a 2Tb Hard disc which I did the above
a Cooler master MWE 80+ 650w nonmodular PSU
a micro atx powerspec case which lacks a rear exhaust but I'd imagine the psu is the exhaust.

Stock cooler is trash, get this and you will see difference https://www.newegg.com/cooler-master-hyper-212-evo-rr-212e-20pk-r2/p/N82E16835103099?Description=hyper%20evo&cm_re=hyper_evo-_-35-103-099-_-Product&quicklink=true

no exhaust fans ? have one on top .. ?
just depending on power supply fan would be bad...

can it be internet loading slow ? do speed test ...

temps look ok... run a bench mark with cpuid hwmonitor
in back ground ... temps look ok? on all componets ?

I have a cat8 ethernet cable in, it's not an internet issue.

A micro atx case may just not have the airflow, try running with case side off. If that makes a difference then you have your issue, more fans or better case.

I'm probably going to get a DRP4 at the end of the month since I didn't want to pull anymore from my debit card this month.

I'm probably also going to change the case and PSU since this one doesn't have a 2.5 or 3.5 inch bay for drives and I had to leave my disc drive ontop of my system. I'm changing the PSU since I don't trust the PSU with 24/7 mining to return on my investment.

but for now it's liveable.

High temps are normal on Zen3, the boost throttle was raised so it really doesn't slow down until after 80 degrees, and they push much higher clocks on the same power spec

Load temps even with decent cooler without curve tweaking are usually 70+

[Illusion of Progress]

There's absolutely nothing wrong, unusual, or dangerous about those temperatures for that CPU/architecture, especially on the stock cooling. If the case/cooling situation is bad as you make it sound, I'd actually say you could expect temperatures to be a bit worse, even.

The "taking two minutes to open a web browser" is not normal, though.

Ryzen CPU in Desktops = if its running under 85*C there really is not an issue at all.
Unless the CPU is actually throttling, then where is your issue at?
However it is better to not have to go above 70-75*C to allow it some breathing room to auto boost its clocks higher, based on lower thermals. Once you reaching closer to 80*C, it simply can not auto boost very high because it knows its too close to reaching the CPU Temp Limit.

Overall, stock cpu coolers are in fact junk and the fan is too small and the fins are too few.
Always best to at the very least, change it out for something like a Hyper212 Black Edition or Arctic Freezer 34. There are plenty of other coolers with similar cooling as these two I mentioned for around $40 or cheaper.

Buy a Case where the PSU mounts at the bottom and mount the PSU fan-side down. There should be venting and filter at the bottom of the case for this purpose. The case should also have at least 2x Front fan placements, 2x Top fan placements, 1x Rear fan placement (next to the Motherboard I/O area).

Yeah honestly I am thinking of just putting it all into my old Corsiar 450D since that actually had great airflow. I don't have the correct bracket for my old cooler though, so really probably at the end of the month get an aftermarket cooler and maybe add some better fans than old corsair fans from 5 years ago.

in other news I'm glad that my cpu is working as normal
