Hi,
I recently upgraded from:
i5-6600
Asuz z170 Pro-Gaming Mobo
16GB Corsair dominator ddr4
to:
i7-10700k
Gigabyte z490 Aorus Elite AC
32GB Kingston DDR
Basically an endgame upgrade; just waiting on the GPU's to come down in a price and that will be my 'dream-machine' scenario.
Everything is great except that the CPU cooler fan runs noticeably louder than before, constantly ramping up and down, sitting roughly about 50-60°C when I am doing simple tasks like browsing etc.. basically all tasks that were done before are now noticeably louder. I didn't expect a high-end CPU to run this hot in comparison to the i5.
Any recommendations? I have adjusted the fan profiles for noise levels but the fact that the CPU is spending more time in the 50°C region is causing me some concern.

Any hints/tips greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
