Normal Temps for Ryzen 9 5900X

This, Phantom Spirit is even better. I tested it with 1 fan fitted and on 7800x3d it performs more or less the same as full custom loop.

I have just watched the phantom spirit video and was amazed at the amount of "gunk" they put on (a great glob! - partic see the video on the rainforest site) - I put a few mm mini glob - perhaps I didn't put enough? Should I try a bit more?

You can try, but from my experience its very hard to not put enough if the cooler contact is fine. Most people put too much.
I think your temps are fine anyway. With Ryzen the temp does not matter much unless its hitting thermal limit.

At BIOS seems to run all the time at 4.7MHz? so runs quite hot?

I ran cinebench R20 and it went up to 79 deg C.

Yer I was replying to the guy that said it will idle in bios. It defo doesn’t..

79c after a cinebench run is fine, r23 is the best one to run but that’s said 79c is still fine.

You should set an offset in bios if you haven’t already.

Bit of a novice in this area - what does set an offset in BIOS mean?

find the "AMD overclocking" tab in there you can set a voltage offset it will reduce the voltage curv of the CPU.
you will need to do it in steps it gos from 0 to 30 in steps one 1, i tend to go up in 5's

my CPU runs at -25 and it drops the temps a good bit.

Not the best video but it as all the info you need
 
I said it would idle in the bios
As in there's no background processes there
To make the temperature jump around like in windows
Didn't say it would downclock the frequency

But testing in bios
Is just to see there's no obvious problems
With your cooling solution/mounting/thermal paste/pump etc
It's first thing I always do with a new build
Sit in bios a few minutes
Temperature shouldn't keep rising if all is well

Load testing is of course the next step
And of more importance

And yeah you can tweak these cpus
And still end up with same speed
Yet be significantly cooler As wing-man said

There's more than one way to do it
The way mentioned
Or by playing with EDC,PPT etc
These chips are more complicated than the old
Adjust voltage and multiplier days

Thanks - I'll try that another day with a clear head!

it will run at full fixed voltage and clocks.
that's the complete opposite of idle.

systems run warmer in bios that idle in windows
 
IIRC it’s a dynamic resolution scaling tool.
Does that mean something - or is it 3 words picked out of the air! Joking apart thanks for responding but I do not know what that means! BUT looking at google it's to do with CPU / graphics performance in games. I don't do gaming so I will keep it "off" in BIOS.
Thanks, Mel

Shruggs:

Seems the resolution varies to keep the frame rate as high as possible. Ie dynamically adjustable resolution scaling. I seem to remember fiddling with it once.
