I build my pc yesterday, and throughout those 2 days, my processor goes nuts?
It runs at 55 degrees idle, and it jumps to 65-70 and cools down. After 3-4 seconds it doest that again
I have no problems while gaming though, I was running Metro Exodus max settings and the processor was at stable 65. What could be the issue?

Specs if needed:
Strix B450-f Gaming
Ryzen 5 3600x
Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 Super Windforce OC
2x8 3200mhz HyperX Predator
Seasonic Focus GX-550W 80 Plus Gold

UPDATE: Forgot to mention Im using an aftermarket cooler
CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Black Edition

I did that a couple of times, the weirdest part is while playing any game it doesnt do that, it only does that while in idle. Any game I play it doesnt go hotter than 70
