Not going to risk it and I heard asus is terrible with rma so I just get from local shopee and went for msi b650 gaming plus wifi.

Anyone getting high idle temp with Ryzen 9 9950X3D? Im using AIO cooler (NZXT Kraken Elite 360 v2) but during idle, the temp show 52-60c.

Yes, that is pretty normal, mine also similar.

Hi all. Wondering at ambient temp of 30c (usual in malaysia), what temp did you get for 5900x typically?

Mine's 50c ish, kraken 280mm idle (utilization below 5c), undervolted.

Im wondering if there's some issue with the thermal paste.

it seems pretty hot though. seems not normal to me. anyone here having idle temp below 50c at normal room temp.

Tune the power settings in windows. I remember posting it here on my 5900X days. Going below 40C is possible. Use this at your own risk. Not official settings.

While Asrock shares the most failures it isnt just an Asrock problem.


So owners of other mobo brands should check if they have those settings too.

I'm using the NZXT Kraken Elite 360 V2 with a Ryzen 9 9950X3D. My idle temps used to be around 60°C, which felt kinda high. Just wanted to share a quick tip that helped me drop them significantly:

I installed the Thermalright AM5 secure frame and swapped to a better thermal paste. I'm using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme. Now my idle temps are sitting around 45°C. Huge difference.

does that mean the stock TIM from NZXT is crap?

anyone use Core Temp to monitor Ryzen cpu temp? last I used was on Intel Skylake era.

CoreTemp very very old dy, no support for hybrid CPUS like LGA1700 gens so it likely has security holes.

AMD has a very good command center for monitoring, why not use that?

Personally I use LibreHardwareMonitor as it allows to put a widget on desktop for me to monitor in real time (at the right side)

Amd ryzen & ddr5 ram issue

Yup, DDR5 CL30 and 6000Mhz is the sweep spot.
