Ryzen 5 5500 93 celsius

Im having a problem cooling my CPU, in games it get really high temperatures like 90 or 93. below my pc configs...

CPU : AMD RYZEN 5 5500 
GPU : NVIDIA RTX 4060 8GB 
(te cooler of the cpu is the original which come whit it in the box, and the pc has more 3 on front side)

in games that my gpu got 100% usage like minecraft whit really strong shaders, my cpu tends to work more, and in usages higher than 40 or 50% the cooler seems not to do the work well, when it gets  60% of medium usage it just stay at 90 celsius, and i don't know if the cooler is the problem or if i need to configure the cpu cooler speed or if i have to buy  more stronger cooler for the cpu. I would really apreciate any help, thank you.

The Ryzen 5500 box processor comes with a Wraith Stealth cooler, which is a very minimalistic heatsink and fan. However it should be adequate to keep temperatures lower than what you are experiencing. It would have come with thermal paste pre-applied, make sure the four screws are securely tightened all the way in, and that none are cross-threaded.

Also check the motherboard BIOS (or software utility) for the CPU fan curve setting. If it is set to silent change this to normal (default) setting. Verify the fan RPM speed increases with temperature. It should be reaching 100% well before hitting 90°C.
