1700X and 1800X have a +20'C Temp offset, 1700 unaffected.

Something i just found recently, but if people were thinking their 1700X and 1800X temperatures are being reported a bit high, this appears to be the reason.

Seems like a bit of a lazy shortcut though? At lease one user on this forum has returned his 1700x for a refund as he presumed it was faulty based on the insanely high idle temp. Accurate temp reporting and a proper fan profile would be much preferable. How much extra work can it be to provide one additional profile for the X chips??

You would have to do it on a per part basis, that is the issue.
