Ryzen 7 9850X3D high temps — normal or is something wrong…

Ryzen 7 9850X3D high temps — normal or is something wrong?

Hey everyone,

I’m having some concerns about my CPU temps and wanted to get some opinions.

I recently upgraded to a Ryzen 7 9850X3D, and I’m seeing what feels like pretty high temperatures. At idle, it sits around **50–60°C**, and while gaming it goes up to **85–95°C**.

**Specs:**

GPU: RTX 3080

CPU: Ryzen 7 9850X3D

Motherboard: ASUS X870-A

RAM: 32GB

Cooler: NZXT Kraken Elite 240mm AIO

I’ve already repasted and reseated the cooler, so I don’t think it’s a bad mount, but I’m starting to wonder if something else is going on.

What’s confusing me is that my previous CPU (Ryzen 5 5600X3D) ran much cooler under the same setup.

So I’ve got a few questions:

Does anyone else CPU run this hot ?

Could my AIO be the issue, or is 240mm just not enough?

Should I try undervolting, and if so, what’s the safest/easiest way to do that on this chip?

Any advice would be appreciated 🙏
