3700x pinned @ 4.3 GHz and high temps

Hi, I recently built a pc with a Ryzen 7 3700x with wraith prism, RTX 3060TI, ASUS TUF B550-PLUS, WD Black SN750, 2x8 3600 CL16 Ripjaws (D.O.C.P enabled), Corsair 650w PSU, and an NZXT H510 with one fan as intake in front and one as exhaust in back (I have only 2 stock fans). I've been monitoring temps and clock speeds for my 3700x and they seem a little strange. My temps while idle are about 49 (sometimes) to 60, my temps with some apps open are 55-65, and my temps while gaming are 65-79. In CAM my temps rise, then lower to a certain temp, then go straight back to a higher temp in a span of about 7 seconds and repeat. For example 66-60-59-57-53-50-66-64, etc. As for clock speeds, it hovers around 4.3 most of the time and sometimes drops down to 4.1, but not that often. The only time I saw it drop was when I started Cinebench r23 it dropped from 4.3 GHz to 3.9 for some odd reason. I would also like to mention that AI suite 3's CPU package reading matches with CAM's CPU temp reading. AI suite 3 also says that my CPU core temps are significantly lower (44-55 most of the time). This is really confusing and I would like to know if this sounds bad, or if it's normal.

 

Thanks
