Amd Ryzen 5800 overheating

Hi all built my pc last year and all was working fine until recently,
This is my pc specs
I have an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor on a MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK (MS-7C91) motherboard with, A Palit GeForce RTX 3080 GamingPro 10GB GDDR6X Ray-Tracing LHR Graphics Card, 8704 Core, 1440MHz GPU, with a MSI MAG A850GL PCIE5 Power Supply Unit, 850W, 80 Plus Gold, Fully Modular, ATX 3.0, PCIe 5.0 Cpu cooler is a Cooler Master MasterAir MA410M CPU Cooling System - ARGB Hologram Effect, 4 CDC 2.0 Heat Pipes with Thermal Detection, Air Glide Armour and Push-Pull fans and used ARCTIC MX-6 Ultimate Performance Thermal Paste for CPU very high thermal conductivity,

I have been playing Assassins creed origins and sniper 4 and a few other games recently when the game would crash and screen go black then I would have to reboot the pc.
On reboot sometimes the bios flashes up a cpu overheating warning before carrying on to load windows 10. I downloaded and ran AMD ryzen master and notice cpu gets upto 90c which apparently is normal? seems rather high to me. The pc is overclocked by the ryzen master doing curve master on per core. I havent tried to overclock manually as I have no clue as to the whys and whatnots so steer clear. And Yes I regularly clean the dust off from inside the pc as it has a glass panel and looks horrible with the dust showing. I bought a small portable vacume cleaner which sucks and blows so is very useful for getting dust out of fans and cooler blocks. I have recently bought some kryonaut thermal grizzly thermal grease to put on the cpu - not got around to this yet as im still trying to work out why its getting too hot or if I need to disturb the cpu. Below is a layout of the fans and airflow which I thought should be keeping everything cool enough. Any help and suggestions please as im out of my depth where this problem is concerned.pc airflow.jpg
