This is super late but if you never got an answer, the 9800x3d is designed to run hot, and boosts up above 90c if needed. 80’s is well within operating temperatures, but if you’re concerned, it doesn’t usually hurt to repaste!

Try to get another one cooler because it should really be sitting under 40C comfortably.

Thats not true, 40c is normal idle for these chips. Unless your ambient temp is low

I was under the impression along with others on this thread that it was?

See the post above, amd CPU temperature is CCD1 Tdie, Tctl/Tie are AMD offsets for fan curve. IOD is irrelevant.

Wait, what?!?! So I’ve been assuming my 9800X3D is idling at 47 (CPU TCTL/Tdie) when it’s really idling at 37 (CCD1 Tdie)?

jai05__@reddit

ME TOO LMAO. But the thing is, I run Corsair RAM sticks which use a higher voltage than some other sticks of the same speed, so I'm getting 48-49C at idle.

Ah okay, but your die average is in the 40s, guessing that is inclusive of that offset then?

Alternative_Manner_2@reddit

Ryzen master is same as the CPU temp in HWInfo, he is really rude, ghe doesnt come off as it, and has ZERO knowledge of what he talks about, he copied and pasted from HWInfo for older Ryzen chips

Accurate_Test_9993@reddit

dont back track now, you said there is no reason for these chips to be 40-45 and YET, your CPU is 43 lol when people talk about CPU temperature, they are referring to your 43 number at the top

Alternative_Manner_2@reddit

Dude what is youir ambient. Idle has evertyhing to do with ambient. Load temps is what matter. Some blocks especially chinese made ones perform better than the big brands. However what you have shown is very advanced tweaking for the general consumer, as well as actually breaking your warranty. 40 degrees idle is perfectly normal with these chips. I have 42 degree idle in my country, but load temps in R23 ar 67 to 68 degrees at 5.3GHZ so YOU should try and understand normals compared to YOUR results.

Only you cant seat a CPU or apply paste, and clearly cant read. Why dont you install Ryzen master and run it side by side with HWInfo and see what temps it shows. You wont cause you know its wrong. Maybe grow up a little? You dont know it all

Now that the sun has set, ambient 26C , and temps are honestly better than yours even with your lower ambient. Start reporting the correct figures, you arent special and neither are you clever. I dont mind you being quirky or smart, but when you post misinformation you need to be checked. You will be the cause of someone else thinking their temps are high, tinkering, and possible damaging something in the process that was fine all along. Just because YOU wont, doesnt mean someone else cant. Now apologise to me and go sit in the corner and be grateful you have a 9800X3D to play with

[-]

AnOrdinaryChullo@reddit

It's cute how you spent hours trying to cool off your CPU just in an attempt to bring it to normal levels but you've already shown that it's running way hotter than it should be.

As I said, redo the installation and learn what the HWinfo sensors do, until you do, remain quiet on the topic as advice from an amateur won't help anyone.

At idle my CPU is 40C which seems to be on par for what most are getting with this CPU. Also have my AIO set on silent so could possibly be a bit lower at rest if I did performance or took the time to make a custom cooling range. Thanks for posting.

MohdGhm247@reddit

I have a question, i saw your tag, and I'm wondering, I'm new to pc modding, and i saw people talking about undervolting, but never tried it, I'm scared it'd mess up my new pc, but from what i see, it can help a lot with longevity of pc components, can you help guide me where to start? I have 9850x3d, asus tuf 5080, asus prime x870-p, and 32gigs cl36 ram ( ik not the best, but this was the bundle).

[-]

Bulky_Lie7821@reddit

Hey I'm probably a little late to the party, but hopefully I can help. Undervolting is generally pretty safe especially compared to overclocking. You'll want to head into your BIOS on the motherboard. This seems counterintuitive since we're undervolting, not overclocking, but you want to look for something called Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) which is usually in the Advanced or AI Tweaker section. Enable it then you'll want to apply these settings as a safe start point:

Curve Optimizer: All Cores

Curve Optimizer Sign: Negative

Curve Optimizer Magnitude: 15

If it's stable when you boot and run some stress tests, you can try bumping 15 up to 20 or 30.

[-]

paidbythekill@reddit

It’s hard to find this but what is normal operating temp? HWiNFO recorded 93c as the max temp mine reached when gaming but it averaged at 63. So just a blip it seems.

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

more likely burst to load something (like initial game loading, etc) - up to 95 degrees is the limit where the CPU will be happy to boost away for more performance and keep it there (i.e. even if it can boost further by other parameters, will not due to 95 degrees being the target temp). So all good in your case.

[-]

Jaded-Conclusion8340@reddit

Is there a way I can limit this? It’s pretty scary having it jump to 88-95 everytime I launch a game or compile shaders. I’m thinking about replacing my cooler but I don’t think it’s that

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

don't be, 9800x3D is designed to literally work 24/7 at 95 degrees Celsius. This is not "spikes" temp, 95 degrees is the operational temp target and the CPU will boost if it can till it reach it.

the only option to lower it besides better cooling solution (and even that one is hard with 9800x3D that reach 160W on single CCD vs for example my 5900x that was 140W for 2 CCDs :D). My corsair titan 360 AIO will also see spikes towards 95 degrees. So the only option is negative CO, i.e. undervolting the CPU - be careful there tho as you really need to test a lot for stability for each core and tune each core individually. I recommend prime95, linpack extreme and y-cruncher for testing (latest versions, many hours of each...). How to undervolt via CO you can find on the web, plenty of guides.

[-]

Snufalupaghus@reddit

Hey I know this is old, but do you think it's really worth all that if the cpu is designed to run at that temp? I'm not doing any overclocking, or anything, just because I don't need it, and the way these new cpu's are designed to run that hot makes me uncomfortable. I know it's the new norm, but still. thanx.

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

Hi and yes, they are designed to run at those temps 24/7. I know it's a little bit worrisome given that before max temps were frequently around 70 degrees iirc and if OC'ed started to have stability issues at around 62-65 degrees. There are many factors why new CPUs runs a lot hotter, including the manufacturing process node, but it's totally by design and nothing to worry about.

Here is the official listing from AMD for the max operating temp:

Max. Operating Temperature (Tjmax)

95°C

source: https://www.amd.com/en/products/processors/desktops/ryzen/9000-series/amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d.html - under the general specifications

The CPU will boost till that temp is reached and then control that boost to keep it at that temp. This is not throttling (easy to observe it yourself: HWinfo64 have throttling in the sensors - you will see for all it's always "no" even at 95 degrees) or the thermal limit temp where the CPU will make emergency shutdown to protect itself.

[-]

Jaded-Conclusion8340@reddit

Perfect thank you. I’m coming from a 9700k that never went much higher than 75c so seeing these numbers made me think I was breaking my new cpu lmao. Sounds like learning to undervolt would be smart too. appreciate the info man

[-]

wsoxfan1214@reddit

Even undervolting, it'll boost itself to 90-95 when doing stuff like compiling shaders. Mine is at a -30 all core UV and it still gets to 90-92c temporarily when compiling shaders in Rivals. Is what it is.

[-]

Jaded-Conclusion8340@reddit

Yeah after using it for longer it only really runs hot when compiling shaders, but after I undervolted slightly it’s a lot better. Rivals was what was scaring me at the time too😭

[-]

Large-Response-8821@reddit

Honestly don’t waste time stress testing with anything but y-cruncher in VT3 mode. I had big all core undervolt and it literally passed everything, OCCT, Linpack, AIDA64 but it would not last 30 seconds in y-cruncher. Now I do not bother to test with anything else just y-cruncher in VT3 mode.

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

Stock will pass it, you know what that means? Pseudo stable is ok if you don't have important stuff on your PC and use it only for gaming, I am not a fan - if it's not stable in everything stock is, then it's not stable period. Each on it's own, I guess.

[-]

Large-Response-8821@reddit

Yea stock will but I have a big undervolt, yea probably it will be fine but I am OCD like that I want ot to pass everything so I just test with y-cruncher VT3 mode. If it passes y-cruncher VT3 it will pass everythingelse

AriesNacho21@reddit

i put the nzxt elite 2025 360mm aio on it, used thermal grizzly duronaut, undervolted -30, +200mhz on core, and get 39-41 idle, 55-65 in game, 79-80 full cinebench

so if you guys are using it stock the temps you have are normal, i undervolted n only lost 1-2 celsius, also there is an option in bios called typical power supply, change it to low idle power supply, and then change your power plan to balanced on windows this allowed ryzen chips to handle putting cores to sleep and giving them less power when idle, the only time this is bad is with a heavy undervolt because it can crash accidentally choked from power, but -20 UV with low power idle should run fine if you have decent silicon

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

yeah, what you get is looking like the norm - corsair titan 360 here, similar stuff as temps (AIO on top, I care mostly about the 4090 that was suffering due to my previous NH-D15, now much lower GPU temps + NVMEs temps as well).

[-]

Shot_Trainer2843@reddit

Why was your 4090 suffering?

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

meshify 2 (the normal one, not the small/big variant) - additional 150W in the case from the CPU cooler didn't help together with the 450W of the 4090.

[-]

Large-Response-8821@reddit

I am using the LF III 240 with +200 overclock and some undervolting and I have 44c tctl idle temp. In Cinebench full load I hit 90c but my fans don’t start blowing until 88c so that is likely on me, and I am ok with that because I get busted by the misso when she trying to sleep in the room next door if my fans are going off lolol

Only other setting I changed in BIOS was setting memory to expo 6400 profile. Idle with the browser open are now around 42,5-43 Celsius and Cinebench 24 multithread got it to 81. But I do have relatively cold ambient temp right now, around 20. Looking at some other people, especially with watercooling, it seemed a bit suspicious, but in the Cinebench, I seem to be getting similar results as in reviews.

Ambient temps are probably what has your idle slightly higher. Like right now my ambient temp in the room is about 65F and my chip is at 37C while doing light productivity work.

Damn dude same. Built my first pc today. Idle sits at 46 all the time. When I run cinebench multi core it just rapidly goes over 90s and starts thermal throttles in seconds, dunno wtf is causing this

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

it's the CPU, with corsair titan 360 it's better, but not by insane amount.

[-]

Shirofune@reddit

Honestly, just undervolt it.

I don't know if I have a great quality one, but so far I can sustain a boost of 5.4 GHz with a -30 offset curve volt.

Temps are pretty much the same as I originally posted and the OC is there.

If you apply the curve at the original boost, you can get a very sizeable temp drop.

[-]

Large-Response-8821@reddit

Please test using y-cruncher in VT3 mode to see if you can sustain -30 all cores with the +200MHz, this is the only tool that will give you a true assessment of total stability in my experience

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

yep, even -15 will massively help, while -25/30 is really good. Not to mention that you can CO per core to find the best possible undervolt for your individual CPU (so if you have crappy core, you can still push the other ones further)

Same here. Getting 45c on idle, 55c or so while gaming and 89 when 100% usage while compiling shaders.

I'm using an H170i 420mm AIO, case is a LianLi Evo XL, With a case and AIO that big, i was expecting better temps, but oh well.

im rocking an NZXT Kraken Elite 420 with NZXT H9 Flow RGB+
Like you, I come browsing reddit cause i was expecting / hoping for lower temps with such a high end investment in cooling.
Glad to see my number aligns with yours then
My 9800X3d idles at 44-45, ran cinebench last night and it was at 76+-

[-]

happiehappie@reddit

Watching anime now and my 9800X3D is 42c Kraken elite 420mm. Case is NZXT H9 Flow RGB+ I don’t mean to humblebrag you just cause it’s lower than you. But yea like you with such a high end AIO I was hoping it to be cooler (hence why I googled and stumbled upon this post in the first place) but oh well :(

[-]

LawfuI@reddit

That's crazy, is that how it actually works? I thought I did some mistake with my AIO and stuff since it kept going up to 90-95C when launching new games at 100%!

[-]

Von_Hugh@reddit

I got pretty much 50 degrees at idle all the time with my Thermalright Aqua Elite 240. Screwed the pump block brackets and the pump itself tighter, and the temps immediatily dropped to 48. I can raise the pump and radiator fans speeds to get 45 degrees at idle. But can't seem to get any better than that in Lian Li A3.

[-]

CommunicationOk9211@reddit

yeah seems weird, ive got the corsair titan rx 360mm and that also sees around 45 to 50 degrees, while cinebench its around 85 without undervolt and with a -25mv applied its around 76

[-]

cslayer23@reddit

I pbo'd 80 level 2 I believe and it won't go passed 85c

[-]

AsH83@reddit

Games some time spike the CPU when they load/process shaders then they drop quick

Unless your game is CPU heavy, your CPU temp should be ambient +30ish during normal game sessions, so 50ish for a 23c ambient

[-]

cslayer23@reddit

Yeah my ambient is like 45

[-]

AsH83@reddit

your room is 45C???

[-]

cslayer23@reddit

I'm sorry PC idle temp 😂

[-]

Large-Response-8821@reddit

Perfectly normal. CPU designed to punch up to 95c when under big workload. Only negative is performance throttle but really in gaming it only hits these temps when compiling shaders or other such intensive operations. I would not replace cooler for 95c spikes. Using brand new cooler I observe same.

[-]

paidbythekill@reddit

Exact same with BF! Mine went to a maximum of 93c but then in game it was averaging about 63c.

Mine is right now 48c idle with corsair 360mm 150i icue link QX and in games it like under 60, but when loading shaders in WARZONE hits 70c , and in prime95 avx on goes up to 80c ,it seems a little bit high on idle , before i had intel and idle was lower but also went up to 100c at max power !! i had to undervolt the intel cpu to lower that heat , probably i will do with this also :D

[-]

jai05__@reddit

Mine is also around the same as you, I don't get why ours is so hot at idle with a 360mm aio cooler

[-]

Szabinger@reddit

I just installed the 9800x3d with a Liquid Freezer III 240, and my idle temp in windows is 50c, and doing a stress test it shoots up to 85. Does this mean I fucked up the mounting of the cooler (or cooler is faulty)?

[-]

LawfuI@reddit

Probably bad mounting, did you solve the issue?

[-]

Szabinger@reddit

I solved the issue by replacing it with a Phantom Sprit 120 SE. But while doing the switch I realized, that the SSD heatsink didn't allow the Liquid Freezer to mount properly, but at that point I already decided to get rid of it.

[-]

LawfuI@reddit

That's an excellent point, I'll double check and see if my heatsink is getting in the way and just remove it.

[-]

No-Independence9188@reddit

my 9800x3d with noctua D15 idle temp in windos is also 50c+. But I saw ppl with much lower idle temp with 9800x3d. I wonder if that's due to the thermal paste or room temp difference. Anyway, my room temperature is around 27c.

[-]

Szabinger@reddit

In the meantime I replaced the LF III 240 with a Phantom Spirit 120, and the temps are MUCH better.

[-]

No_Entertainer8805@reddit

Spirit se or evo?

[-]

Szabinger@reddit

SE, still doing its job like a boss

[-]

gigno9@reddit

How much temperatures improved? Ho un Arctic LF III 360 mm and I have about 36/37 ⁰C in idle. I think it's the pump mounting offset that's to blame...

[-]

Szabinger@reddit

In the meantime I figured out, that the SSD headsink didn't allow the pump to sit properly on the cpu, so probably that's why the liquid freezer was underperforming. But I still have the phantom spirit, and couldn't be happier.

[-]

Nedwobsamoht@reddit

Yeah ive got same 7 9800x3d and noctua nh-d15. First boot to bios and I'm getting 49c with just that cooler spinning and the case open. Stock case fans doing nothing though. Average temp inside the room. Also unimpressed with core temp. Was expecting around 30c.

[-]

banock94@reddit

Same exact thing here. I got the 9800x3d with NH-D15 cooler getting around 50 degrees on idle! Running Cinebench it it stays around 85. I'm wondering if it has to do with the off set mount. Did you use the off set mount that came with the Noctua too?

[-]

Nedwobsamoht@reddit

I did use the offset mount yes. I also had to offset the front fan by 10 or so mm to clear the RAM, nearly touching side glass. after a while I went and added 11 phanteks case fans. now my idle with steam and this web page open it sits at 39 showing on the board display. I was going to wait for 50 series cards to come out and then buy a 4090 and then water cool everything but minister for fun and finance decided I was paying her car rego instead.

[-]

Insanity8016@reddit

So those 11 fans caused a 10c decrease?

[-]

Nedwobsamoht@reddit

maybe, but the intention was to add a liquid cooling loop in font/behind them all but I was waiting to see what the prices of the 50 series cards would be. Then had to spend money on something else so still havnt gotten around to it. now just have pretty fans with slightly cooler set up

[-]

Shot_Trainer2843@reddit

I just installed the 9800x3d with a noctua nh-d15 and I am getting 44c at idle. I live in Hawaii and my room generally gets pretty hot.

DreamerSoul3@reddit

Hey i have the same cpu and exact cooler and my temps were 50 idle and 95c during minimal gaming. I checked everything and found out that the standoffs that we install the pump on were loose. I tightened them and now idles at 35 and 55 on gaming.

[-]

thekhanmahn@reddit

Can you elaborate which part standoff on the pump is loose?

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

what you mean by saying "standoffs" - the two bracket parts that you slide into the block/pump? That can explain the issue if the case, yeah.

[-]

TurnerThePcGamer@reddit

I just checked and mine were loose but I still got the same results 😞. I think imma have to buy a new cooler as mine is 3 years old at this point.

Yeah just reseated my cpu and had the same issue. :(

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

dunno tbh - with corsair titan 360 I idle in win at about 45 degrees + I can see easily high temps in stress tests (like OCCT pure CPU test extreme). You are with 240mm AIO and that won't help. Defo negative CO is the way to go to lower temps (if you do negative CO with stock power limits/boost frequency, it's pure undervolt).

[-]

thanatos2501@reddit (OP)

I wonder if a 240 isnt cutting it?

[-]

Alternative_Manner_2@reddit

So the one guy showing off low temps blocked me from replying. Please dont fall for his comments. 40C is perfectly normal on these CPUs with a Cinebench load of 84 degrees. Sustained gaming performance should be around 55 to 60 degrees depending on game, Anything else is either lower ambients, lower voltages, better cooling solution or silicon lottery on the chip. Everyone else is fine

[-]

That dude is a dumbass anyway, I've been reading the replies and he was just telling you the lowest temperatures of his inactive core LOL

Im sitting on around 50 in idle and 89 on cinebench multi core. Started to think about a new cooling concept since the ranges of the measured temperatures here are insane. Some are sitting on 39 idle some on 55. Thats a crazy gap. Have the thermaltake 360v2.

[-]

Szabinger@reddit

Same here. -30 CO, Liquid Freezer 3 240, 50c idle 90+ cinebench. I ordered an air cooler to test it.

[-]

LawfuI@reddit

Did the new cooler solve the problem? I'm having the same issue but with a liquid freezer 3 360, I'm idling at 50-53 and cinebench bunches it up to 90

[-]

jonRock1992@reddit

I doubt that -30 CO is stable. I thought mine was until I ran the AIDA64 stress test with the CPU, FPU, and Cache checkboxes all checked. I ran Core Cycler for 8 hours straight with -30 CO on mine. I didn't know it wasn't stable until the AIDA64 stress test.

[-]

You are right, I lowered it to -25 and because I had a crash at -30. Ever since that, it's been rock solid.

something is off in your case for sure, but idle 30 ain't normal as well :D \~45 is the most common one (both on air and aio). I have that both on my NH-D15 and corsair titan 360.

[-]

Xektor@reddit

I have 40° Idle and i when i stress test it (occt with full load, 155w) i get 93° after a few seconds.
Where other people claim they hit 70° max in cinebench. cinebench i get 85° with -38 CO 100 fmax.

So i am really really confused if my AIO is not working properly or if I am suddenly applying paste the wrong way (after i did it 30 times before)....,

[-]

Boxofcookies1001@reddit

When I'm checking the volts cinebench only causes my CPU to pull 100-110 watts. At 100% CPU utilization.

I get the same. 32C idle average. sometimes as low as 27C or as high as 34C. Corsair cooler and TM70 paste. Just better at using thermal paste probably

[-]

EveningHorror94@reddit

mine is the same

[-]

keblin86@reddit

It's a very weird feeling for me. I usually idle around 28c/34c on my old computer 5600x but then gaming it can go to 55-60c.

On my new computer 9800x3d my idle is always around 43c, what is very weird is how much higher it is at idle but then...so far get this, only 48-50c when gaming. Only tried 1 game so far, more to test soon. I find it very odd lol and increasing my fans barely makes a difference.

[-]

Darkhorse_GT@reddit

I chuckle about all the heat complaints with intel cpus. I ran a 13700k on a .125 under volt. Idled at 28c and around 55c gaming. Y cruncher hit low 80s.

Just fired up tonight after swapping to 9800x3d and idle temps are 40 which surprised me. It is weird that they are rock solid though. I thought my display on the mobo was stuck until I ran cb24. My 13700k would bounce all over the place constantly.

I'll be interested how this compares in game to the 13700.

[-]

Futureboy152@reddit

Anyone check temps with an air cooler?

[-]

f00bart@reddit

9800x3d @ Noctua NH-D15S (with dual 140mm fan and offset mounting):

Idle: 38-40 °C (equals to around 15K above ambient temp)

Cinebench: 80 °C

Gaming: around 70°C

Thermal paste: Thermal Grizzly Duronaut

For me the temps highly depend on the airflow in the case. I have 4 140mm case fans supporting my tower cooler as the 9800X3D sure produces a lot of heat. I could get slightly better temps by increasing the fan curve to an annoying level and I can get worse temps (up to 90 °C) if I want my setup to remain super silent.

[-]

Southern_Okra_1090@reddit

Tctrl, ccd and cpu die have maxed over 90-97 degrees with Artic freezer 36 air cooler. Cinebench r23 10 min thermal throttle test reached over 94 degree on this cooler. Note, when I replaced my 7800x3d I simply reapplied paste on the 9800x3d and didn’t clean off the paste on the cooler plate. I came to see wife in richmond so I haven’t had the chance to do another repaste and try. I am on a tuf b650.

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

NH-D15:

- 45 degrees idle

- can reach to 95 degrees limit (stock) under stress test like OCCT pure CPU extreme and over 90 with normal

- naturally in gaming the temps are more than fine, but the fans will ramp up on the CPU in more demanding games towards the CPU

- undervolting will help (negative CO, stock power limits and boost behaviour)

I installed this new CPU yesterday and am using a Noctua DH-15 (the original, not the G2). I am getting between 40c-46c at idle. I ran a multi-core benchmark in Cinebench and the hottest it got to was 82c, but it spent most time at 78c.

Does this seem normal or normal-ish?

reptilexcq@reddit

I don't know if it's normal but I refuse to let my CPU to jack up that high lol. Cinebench test around 66 degree. I just don't like my idle temp... it's around 47 to 52. I like it lower.

[-]

terrique1309@reddit

I've since found that my temps are well within normal range and lower than some other people's, so I don't really care too much. I've got it at a point where the fans don't get that noisy either. As long as damage isn't being done to the chip, I'm not that fussed about trying to make it go lower.

had similar with NH-D15 as well, moved to corsair titan 360 (mostly to give some room to breath to my 4090) and have slightly better results under heavy load. Idle is similar, but no surprise here.

Check your mount. I came from AM4 when I upgraded to my AM5/9800X3D, and it turned out that my mount was not making good contact with my CPU. I was under the impression that the mount would be the same between AM4 and AM5, but it wasn't. I had to add a couple washers under the springs of each of my mounting screws to make it touch the CPU fully. Now I'm getting 78C max in cinebench with an 80mm thick 240mm radiator and an Alphacool Eisbaer Aurora Pro water block / pump. Idle temp is now 44C when it was 48C to 50C.

Is 45celsius normal idle temp for 9800X3D normal? My old 2600X used to be around 32-36idle. Adjusted CPU fan to 50% at 45celsius just in case. Hovered around 46-48c with CPU fan at 40%.

I'm cooling my 9800X3D with a Noctua NH-D15 G2 on a Kryosheet graphene thermal pad.

Mine idles around 36-40C and averages 65C with a max of 67C in Cinebench multi core testing. Actual gaming temps are much lower, like in the high 40's given it's not loaded as much.

Drunkndryverr@reddit

I've been scratching my head all week about temps. At first I was reaching 95c and throttling, when to check my AIO cooler (Kraken 240) and noticed it wasn't seated properly. After reseating and repasting, idle temps 40-45c with avg temps of 80-85c in the new Dragonage (cpu util around 70-90% in this game). This seemed a bit high but what concerned me more is liquid temps being in the 40c range which from everywhere ive seen is a bit high.

corsair titan 360 LCD - top mounted, fans at about 850rpm right now (pump on quiet = more time for the liquid to cool in the radiator). Liquid temp 39-40 degrees at idle.

I also see a lot of people generally reporting lower liquid temp, but that can really vary based on your setup: AIO top exhaust or front intake, AIO fans speed, case fans speed, room temp ofc, etc etc - many factors. My CPU temps are fine, focus on that one.

Wide-Recording-4482@reddit

Corsair titan 360 lcd coolant temp could be lowered by about 5 degrees by simply turning off the outer ring on the pump. Inner ring could help too but not much. Corsair need to fix their products

Should always post motherboard or ambient temperature, makes a difference.

I've just installed a 9900X3D with an AIO Corsair cooler and sitting in the BIOS it idles around 37'c with motherboard temp of 32'c. So I'm generally happy with that.

It's a little disconcerting because the pump is so silent .. should be a window to the liquid to see it moving :D

T_K_9@reddit

Installed my 9800X3D last night and now just testing it. I re applied thermal paste after checking the first try with pea size with Noctua's NH2 thermal paste did not cover a lot of area.

This time it covered all area.

Idle is at 47-50 Highest 90-96 Celsius lol.

First game I tested was Helldivers 2 in the Super Destroyer. All max settings at 4K on an RTX 5080.

9800X3D sure gets toasty, I might need to re-seat the thermal paste again or get a different cooler to replace my 2 year old Fractal 240mm Prisma. (Even though Iove it because of how easy the wiring is on it...

Noctua NH 15D in a Lian li A3 here. Between 42 an 55 seems to bet the normal idle temp. Mine was 50\~55, then I set the back as intake, reducing it to 45\~50.

[-]

T_K_9@reddit

I have changed to a 360mm now and goes max 77 C when loading shaders. And used a thumb glove to spread the thermal paste thinly as well all over the IHS.

The noctua paste is just too thick that it cannot spread evenly when pressed on by the cold plate. When it does its just too thick contributing to the added thermals. Reminds me of thermal grizzlies as well

Guys, today I installed a new 9800x3d processor. I applied Grizzly paste and use AIO 360mm. Idle temps +/- 40c, but in the OCCT test after 7-10 minutes it shows 90c, so I stop test (not to risk it further). Do you think it's something with the cooling or are we waiting for some update/settings?

[-]

Large-Response-8821@reddit

No risk, punch it to 95c without risk and also it keeps itself at maximum 95, sometimes it bumps to 96 before it lowers to 95 but that is all fine AMD allow a safety margin, please do not fear.

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

speaking of temps - 95 degrees is the targeted max temp on 9800x3D (official specs by AMD) and it will boost till that temp happily. Will stop boosting there even if it can by other parameters tho, but not like it's harmful or an issue. Just for your information, not saying you can't improve the cooling setup for even higher boost.

also depends what you ran in OCCT, the pure CPU test and especially in extreme is quite heavy. The CPU + RAM is a lot lighter.

I have a pretty hot 7900 xt and a 9800x3d, cooled by a thermalright 360 aio in a montech king 95 pro, my idle Tctl/Tdie is 44c. Which is as far as I can tell basically the hotspot of the CPU, the core and L3 temps are usually around 25-30 idle. When gaming it usually keeps chill between 60-70c.

Right now I'm just using a -15 undervolt and have a Max boost of 5425 on all cores and it can keep that up for hours staying between 60-75. After 24 hour test, the max CPU Tctl/Tdie temp was 76.9.

Bleh, I think I need to redo my cooler solution after reading this thread.

I am using Cooler Master Hyper 212 /w Corsair TM30 Thermal paste. The thermal paste did seem to have separated liquid in the initial usage...

After booting up the PC my 9800x3d was lower 40s in idle and after playing Path of Exile for about 20 min I was consistently in the 90 Celsius range... topping out at 97C.

I reduced my RAM mhz from 6400 down to 4600 and limited frames in PoE to 144 from uncapped and it seemed to lower CPU temps down into low 80s but still thinking I need to switch my cooling solution or reapply thermal....especially after reading what y'all are getting with Cinebench

I have titan rx 360 LCD - what's your idle water temp and in gaming? For me idle the liquid temp is 39-40 @ 850rpm fans, under heavy load it can reach around 49-50 @ 1350rpm. It's mounted as top exhaust tho and I have 4090, so in heavy long gaming sessions it's not much of an surprise to reach high water temps. Especially in those that averages 400W+ on the GPU.

[-]

ReplacementOne388@reddit

Interesting. My idle liquid temps are about 34.5 with fans around 1500rpm with the pump at balanced. During gaming the temp goes up to around 40 maybe 42 peak

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

Top exhaust or front intake?

[-]

ReplacementOne388@reddit

top exhaust. you definitely have a lot more head room in terms of fan RPM if it's getting too hot during gaming but for idle temps it might not get much lower. My 4080 Super also runs pretty cool so your 4090 could also just be the difference

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

yeah, it's backplate is hot even at idle and dumping heat into the case haha + 3 NVME drives with heatsinks, one is right below the pump/tubes and hot as F. Basically I have a lot of heat in the case even at idle/light load not involving the GPU, gaming is ramping thing up by a lot and my meshify 2 case is not the biggest as well.

Most likely the only viable solution is front intake for the AIO and 2-3 top exhaust fans (+the back one). Will defo negatively impact the GPU temps tho. Alternatively I can just accept the liquid to run a little bit on the hotter side + ramp up fans for the summer to keep that 50 degrees tops, due to -20 CO the CPU is basically 70 degrees tops under cinebench/gaming for the burst loading.

[-]

cha0z_@reddit

sounds a bit high for me. Arctic freezer 36 is not a bad air cooler at all. Repaste/resitting the cooler + undervolting is good thing to try before purchasing new cooller tho.

By undervolting I mean finding the lowest stable negative CO + stock power limits and stock boosting MHz.

[-]

The difference between the Artic 36 and deepcool LD360 was 20+ degrees. As soon as I replaced the air cooler with the aio my temp went from 97 to 73 at most in r23 cinbench. After undervolting, the temp never went above 53 in 4K gaming. It’s crazy…

undervolted the CPU or still stock?

[-]

Southern_Okra_1090@reddit

[-]

IMHO the way to go is exactly pure undervolt: negative CO, stock power limits, no boost frequency override. That will lead to lower temps while keeping the performance more consistent and a little bit higher actually, especially in all cores heavy load.

[-]

DeservedHell@reddit

I have a ASUS ROG strix X670E and Corsair Titan 360 AIO and pasted with MX4. When you enable the EXPO 1 profile, it bumps the SOC voltage up to some silly number. I adjusted the SOC voltage to 1.175v (changed no other voltage or speeds) and idle is between 39 and 42 C.

Temps with Cinebench 23 and OCCT are fine, maintains 5.2 boost all cores on Cinebench and maxes at around 65 C. OCCT still running but temps hover around 56-57 C on any single core.

I also did some research and it seems over tightening the cooler mount on the motherboard can cause issues and while I don’t believe I originally over tightened it, I did go in and loosen each mounting screw a fraction of a hair. Didn’t seem to impact temperature but it did fix a weird issue I kept having whenever I rebooted

40C idle with a Kraken 360. The idle temp went up 5C average when I enabled expo to bump my ram from 4800 to 6000.

Do we think about gettin ~85-90 on cinebench could be normal temperatures ?

Mine peaked at 84C with c24 multi core. Using a Peerless Assassin SE. Im glad I went air over aios this time.

So far, it seems like it.

Im starting to wonder if theres some mounting issues with certain boards? Mine has settled down to 37-38 idle

Mine is around 40-43 so not far off. There could be or it might just run hot. Maybe needs a future driver from AMD. I’m not too worried about the idle temps but >90c when certain games load is definitely concerning. It doesn’t stay there, just spikes.

I've just set up my 9800x3d with a custom loop. With a room temp of 34c it idles at 52 and maxs out at 77 when running cinebench. When I cooled the room down to 28 it idled at 44 and maxed out at 62 in cinebench.

yes, kinda not normal, and you can see that cpu is pulling 35-45w on 0% cpu load. so that explains temp.
Question is why is it pulling that much.

When i Ran cinebench multicore it got to 90c. do i need to repaste?

phoonv02@reddit

same problem. 90c+ under full load

I ran through the benchmarks, I never exceeded more than 77C, idling at 54-60C.

Noctua G2, Asus Tuf X670E Plus Wifi, with PBO and EXPO enabled to 6000.

Honestly temps look fine to me.

I'm running a cooler master 360 AIO and I get around 34°c idle and 70-75°c in cinebench multi core.

Cinebench score of 1320.

Extremely high, kraken z73.

i dont know man. occt instant 95° with -40 curve

redid the setup 2 times now doesnt change. pump says 3000 rpm, dont know whats wrong. cooling was also bad on my old cpu.....

IamNmbrOne@reddit

I'm getting an average of 41C at idle

Choice_Shape_945@reddit

I use a Noctua NH-U14S with NT-H2 paste. It is now listed by Noctua as fully compatible with full Turbo/OC potential. At idle I have 47°C and at full load, such as Prime95 or Handbrake, 91..92°C are reached within a few seconds. But the CPU is supposed to do this to achieve maximum performance.

Hey! Exact same build! 68f ambient everything else in C 40.2 tctl 40 CPU die 24.5 core 0 idle after letting it run for about an hour.

I unzipped (cinebench) a file and it immediately hit 95c and stayed there. Guess I'm reapplying thermal paste lol.

[-]

thanatos2501@reddit (OP)

Yikes, that's gotta be a bad pump or not a tight install. Did redoing the paste work out for you?

[-]

idontknowgibberish@reddit

Ended up not redoing anything and it's been working overnight. Either faulty pump or motherboard. The pump and fans aren't detected in the bios every reboot and it melts itself. 1323 cinebench and temps never went above 70.
