3900x is running hot

[Jamboelite93]

Hi Guys,

So I just recently upgraded from a Ryzen 2600 to a Ryzen 3900x and I am struggling to keep the temps down. I am just using the default stock cooler that came with the 3900x. Whilst playing Warzone my temps go from 75 degrees to 85 degrees. I ran a realbench stress test and ended it within a couple of minutes as it was all the way up to 92 degrees and was a bit scared so stopped the test. I am most likely looking for cpu cooler recommendations to get the temperature down. Its also good to note that I have a mid tower overclockers case with only 1 back fan. Do you guys think that I need to add more fans onto it as well?

Thanks and looking forward to hearing replies from this community.

Hi

Lack of airflow is not going to help temps .

What case do you have and budget for cooler ?

The case I have is the Eclipse P300 Glass Midi Tower Case and probably quite happy to spend up to 100 to get the temperature down

Ok thanks everyone for your help. I am going to go with the two arctic fans in the front and the alpenfohn eco advanced cpu cooler. Would I have to get another front panel or just leave it completely off and if so how does that look?
