Just completed my ryzen build, and I am slightly worried about the temperature readings I am getting.

My Build
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600x standard clock
CPU Cooler: CRYORIG - M9a 48.4 CFM CPU Cooler
GPU: R9 280X
Mobo: MSI B350 TOMAHAWK ATX
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200
PSU: Cooler Master - 750W Semi Modular
I have 1 intake fan at the front, 2 exhaust at the top, and 1 exhaust at the rear

The Temperatures
My BIOS is reading between 45-50 degrees Celsius

When idle on Windows 10:
AMD Ryzen Master is showing temp of around 45-55 degrees Celsius
HWMonitor is showing between 70-75 Degrees with voltages of around 1.28v
CoreTemp is showing around 45-50

I played on PUBG for a while and HWMonitor was reporting around 85-100 degrees

I haven't tried any benchmarks yet, neither have I reapplied thermal paste.

I live on the 5th floor of a very stuffy, sun facing apartment with poor air flow. Its been hitting highs of 30 degrees Celsius.

I read somewhere that Ryzen X series CPUs have an offset of 20 degrees? Would this be the case for my Ryzen 5 1600x?

What do you guys propose I should do? Should I try re-fitting the CPU Cooler? Should I run some benchmarks to see if they bring up any fault?

Thank you in advance

EDIT:
I ran GPU : OCCT for 36 minutes. Here is the temperature graph

Yes the 1600x has a 20c offset.

The bios & ryzen master (if its the latest one ) will allow for this & show correct temps

Hwimfo/monitor/core temp will not .

If you're ambient temps are close to 30c I would fully expect 50c in bios & at low load in windows - ryzen does not run particularly cool compared to previous amd chips.

Id argue the m9 is probably only just up to the job in all honesty.

Really? ah shit maybe I should have gone for a more powerful fan. Could you recommend any fans that would be suitable for me? bearing in mind my apartment is always super hot and acrid.

I have altered fan speeds in BIOS so they spin up faster at a lower temperature and Ryzen master is reporting around 47 degrees when CS:GO is loaded (in main menu and tabbed out). At what temperature should I be starting to worry?

Thanks for the help

That temp is fine mate , if you're happy running the m9 fan faster then you're good


What case are you using??
If it allows for 2 front intakes I would personally take the top front exhaust out & fit it as another front case intake.

2 exhausts is plenty , 1 intake is barely enough.
You'll get better general case airflow with 2 intakes & 2 exhausts.

I'll run the M9a faster for now. I can always purchase a better quality fan in the future if any problems arise.

I have a corsair carbide 400C case (space for 1 rear, 2 top, 2 front)

Wouldn't having the same number of exhaust and intake fans get rid of negative pressure? Correct me if i'm wrong but I thought negative pressure was the key to good airflow.

I can stick one the top fans on the front as an intake if that's the right thing to do.

Negative vs positive pressure has little impact on actual temps mate.
More a way of removing the chance of internal dust build up.
4 fans ?? Always balance them 2 intake , 2 exhaust mate - you'll drop internal temps by 5c straight away just doing that.

Also a top/front exhaust actually drags air away from a tower cooler before its actually had a chance to use it & can impact the cpu coolers fan performance detrimentally.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. Ill chuck one of my 140mm from the top onto the front, which will give a slight positive pressure.

That makes sense. The air is drawn away before it passes the CPU... probably should have thought about that :p

I'll change the fans around and run OCCT again for 20 minutes and get back to you on the results

cheers
