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.
