Just upgraded from a Ryzen 5 3600 and have looked at the standing temps using CPUID HW Monitor. These are:

Temperature 0 44 degC (111 degF) [0x2C] (CPU)

Other items on motherboard:
Temperature 1 35 degC (95 degF) [0x23] (SYS)
Temperature 2 36 degC (96 degF) [0x24] (MOS)
Temperature 3 35 degC (95 degF) [0x23] (Chipset)
Temperature 4 36 degC (96 degF) [0x24] (Socket)
Temperature 5 32 degC (89 degF) [0x20] (PCIE_1)

Cooler is Alpenfoehn Brocken ECO advanced (as bought for the 3600). This has a TDP of 170W (compared to 7900x max out of 105W)

Is 44 degC OK? as "standing temp"?

If I load, say, Adobe "Lightroom", temp goes up to 70 deg C and fan boost kicks in?

Try Cinebench R23, from my experience it is the biggest "boiler" of AMD cpus(not so much for Intel for some reason). If temp will be below 90 degrees there, you have no reason to worry.
 
Have a play with the fans.
Only one fan on the cooler? Only space for one? Or do you mean case fans.

The cooler body (metal fins) doesn't seem to get warm. Perhaps I didn't put enough "paste" on? Used "Arctic Silver 5"?

I have run Cinebench and the score has doubled over the 3600 (3589 / 7918) - I didnt check the cpu temp though - will do tomorrow - didn't really notice fan speed increasing.
 
Mine is 42-32c idle too, peaks at 82c with all cores loaded for a prolonged time. Depends on your load temps but it should be fine. Noctua NH-D15 cooler at low fan speeds for comparison

thats a funny subject. but its a good cooler, it maybe just not a good cooler for the new type of CPUs the chiplet design is making a lot of top cooler fall.
the load temps are what matter really. some AMD chips do idle high.

I cant recommend the PA120 enough
 
Like I said before
It's hard to make modern cpus totally idle
If you want to double check the idle temperature
Boot into the bios
Watch temperature for a minute or two
Shouldn't be any/almost none cpu load in there
