5800x3d temps

[fgpack90]

Hello, i recently installed a 5800x3d with a brand new PA120SE. I was watching at temps in this couple of days i played and CPU goes from around 50 (at low % usage) to 65 when at around 40-45% usage. Is it normal?

Im using Deepcool as500 plus and my 5800x3d.max boost reached 79-81 in cyberpunk and the same in occt stress test. My conclusion is that aio 240/360 would be better option for 5800x3d a specialy that nowadays aio prise isn't so high.

Only use silver or graphene based thermal paste and not that cheaper silicone stuff. The Silver is best and can last over 10 years with one application, next comes graphene at near 8 - 10 years, and silicone lasts only up to 3 years before needing replacement paste.

Just wanted to put this out there because new PC users may not know the difference between pastes.

Key is to stay far from silicone-based crappy thermal paste.

The caveat with using silver is that you do not want to touch it with bare hands. Frankly, you should not touch the CPU with bare hands at all as the skin oils can get trapped between the layers causing temperature sink gaps. But silver can be poisonous if too much is absorbed into the skin - use gloves.

If you want even better temps with air cooled get a Bequiet Dark Rock 4 Pro. I get 34-37 on idle and 40-48 gaming

I'd reapply yearly to shave 5-10 degrees let alone every 3.

That's kinda BS. I run the same paste for around 5 years and my temps don't rise because of that.

I used bubble gum and it last over 10 years.

On a side note: AM4 and AM5 temps can be slightly improved by offset mounting.
Noctua sells such kits for like $5.
Arctic gives that option by default now.
Thermal Grizzly offers a simple universal offset mounting kit for any other cooler.

It’s only 1-3 degree improvement but also why not kind of thing for new builds.
Combine that with a good case, good fans, good thermal paste and it all adds up.
