PC Processors

Hi guys,

Lately I'm having an issue with my temps and my frequency with my CPU. I'm getting 50-70C while idle, doing nothing and my CPU clock is at max frequency 3900-4100 Mhz. I have tried with the power options, balance and going for minimun at 5% and changed max to 85% because when I leave it at 100% the cpu goes back to 4000-4200 Mhz. I dont know why is this happening because few weeks ago i was having like 30-40 while in idle.

Also if my Cpu is not OC why its at 4200?

Ryzen 5 3600 non OC

B450 Gigabyte Aorus Elite MOBO

Oloy 3200hz 16gb ram

Msi Radeon 5700xt 8gb

Kraken x52 AIO

Corsair CV550w 80+bronze PSU

Look for any new software that has been installed in that time frame that may be using the CPU. Also malware can tax a cpu. So scan the system and get rid of any malware.
