At idle my cpu seems to run hotter than expected. Its running at between 38 to 50 at idle. I am trying to trouble shoot and make sense of what I am seeing in Ryzen master. 

The EDC(cpu) is jumping around reading wise and most of the time showing in the red, not sure if this is normal or what.

Core speed is jumping around a lot at idle as well.

This is only my second PC build and first time using an AMD cpu.

I have the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X

Temps readings are the same with Speccy, and Ryzen Master.

system specs are:

normal depending on the power plan you have selected.If you put it on power saver it drops voltages and clocks down until needed.then EDC will drop as well.

I have the power plan set to balanced. Updated the bios today and the chipsets. That seemed to help the jumping all over in Ryzen master. Power plan is AMD Ryzen Balanced. Temps at idle are around 40  the speeds of each core have settled to 3975 now in place of jumping all over the place. I had the core speed jumping a lot, but each core was so different. Some around 4000 some half that.  Just trying to learn more and if there is actually something wrong with my settings or processor now is the time to correct before my warranty is up in a few months.
