whatup homies, just recently built a complete new rig and noticed my cpu seems to run slightly hot (cpuid shows temps around 55-60C but max it says is 79C)
all im doing is downloading WoW and internet browsing. after reading online i see that i should only download the latest BIOS drivers is something is really wrong that they'll fix
I have a ryzen 5 1600x and a gigabyte ab350-gaming 3 mobo along with gtx 1060 graphics
my question is for ryzen is this 55-60 celsius temp for internet browsing normal? and would a bios driver even fix this
heres a little more info

Clean installed Windows? I remember someone had an issue with temps when they used their old Windows install.

What does it show in Ryzen Master?
You should update your BIOS anyways and make sure you have thermal paste applied properly.

Something's fucked in there. My 1600 runs at 40°C idle, and this is with an R9 390 mining alongside it and hot as fuck in the room because Summer.
Either you fucked up the cooler install, or there's something wrong with the chip.
Do like the other anon recommended, and get a fresh Windows install if you haven't. If it's still hot, consider returning it.

Cover the fan ports with a bunch of towels to stop the hot air getting in

what temps do you usually get running a game?

There is a 20C offset in Ryzens. You are all right, mate.

"Specifically, the AMD Ryzen™ 7 1700X and 1800X carry a +20°C offset between the tCTL° (reported) temperature and the actual Tj° temperature. In the short term, users of the AMD Ryzen™ 1700X and 1800X can simply subtract 20°C to determine the true junction temperature of their processor. No arithmetic is required for the Ryzen 7 1700"
but i have the 1600x so can i trust this?
alright kinda feeling relieved now from ryzen master readings (assuming these are gonna be more accurate)
was starting to believe ryzen was a joke you guys perpetuate

I thought all and CPUs were like that or what ever the reading was letting you know how much more temp it had to go before it reached critical levels or something like that. My x860k is like that

Yeah the 20c offset is on all X-series CPUs
