AMD Ryzen 7 5800X running hoT

Hello,

I have just built a new PC but had to raise the fans around my CPU cooler by 1.5cm because the RAM are in the way.
Drivers are up to date, BIOS as well. I did not overclock or mess with the CPU/GPU settings.
The room temperature is around 30°.
The idle temperature is around 40°, 80° while gaming in 2K/ultra and 90° during the multi core Cinebench.
I read that those kind of Processors operated at high temperatures but it still looks a bit too hot.

Here are my system components :
CHASSIS : Fractal Design Meshify 2 Compact Lite RGB Black TG Light Tint
CPU : AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, 8x 3.80GHz
CPU COOLER: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB
MOBO : GIGABYTE B550 Gaming X DDR4
RAM : 32GB DDR4 RAM 3200 MHz Corsair Vengeance LPX (2x 16GB - Dual Channel)
GPU : AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT - 16GB
PSU : be quiet ! Pure Power 12 M - 750W - 80 PLUS Gold

Bellow is a screenshot of AMD Ryzen Master during the multi core Cinebench test.

Any help would be appreciated.

Undervolt it, you will get more performance, less consumption and lower temps... 🙂 You must be able to drop at around 1.1 volts with no issues... check youtube if someone posted undervolt settings already 🙂 I had 5950X and was running at 63 degrees under 100% workload. I now have 7900x, which is running a little more hot at around 75 degrees but it never get 100% workload, so i am fine, 40 degrees on idle and 50 degrees while gaming is fine for me...

Thank you for your suggestion Angeluk. I added an offset of -0.1V on my processor.
But mostly I caped in Adrenaline software my fps 3x frames bellow my monitor frequency, to avoid tearing.
Now idle temperature is 35° and around 50° during gaming.

With a 5800X you can also give Curve Optimizer a chance.
