Hello,

After upgrading from 5600x to 5950x the temperatures are somewhat of concern for me, especially when watching youtube or another light load I can occasionaly notice the processor hitting 95+ celsius degrees on stock bios settings.

idle temperatures

ccd1 30celsius

ccd2 40celsius

setup is

5950x

x570s edge max wifi (2024-09-09 bios)

corsair rm1000x gold

rtx 3080 rog strix

F4-3200c14-8gfx 4x8gb

Cooling with peerless assassin 140 (also tested with liquid freezer 360, also observed spikes to 90c)

6 cases fans, side and bottom intake, rear exhaust.

H6 flow case

BIOS modifications currenty applied to reduce temperatures:

ECO 65w mode

Curve optimizer. 14 cores at -25, 2 cores at 0

RAM timings

CASE

H6 FLOW

For stability testing I use OCCT. Even after 65w eco mode and negative curve optimizer offset, I can see the temperatures spiking up to 90c

I can also use eco 95w mode, but that one has higher temperatures than eco 65w mode
