best cooling for 3990x

Hey im a total tech noob here thanks for your help. I had a computer custom built recently with a 3990x threadripper. I compared my CPU running and idle temperatures with online results and am a little concerned Running 88 degrees and idle 60 degrees. My current CPU cooling is Corsair Hydro Series H80i v2 120mm High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler. 

I'm not sure if this suitable. What other CPU coolers could i buy that would be easy to install myself.

Yea the H80i isn't sufficient for that processor. You need at least an H100i, and ideally the H150i Pro XT, there's no such thing as too much cooling on an ultra high end processor. You may need a new case to fit the best of coolers though, the H150 is a 360mm cooler, the H100 and H115 are 240mm coolers.
