Hello everyone
I recently had an ID Cooling SE 214 paired with my Ryzen 3600 on my PC. In my opinion, that cooler was more than enough. However, I just received a Hyper 212 LED Turbo as a gift today. After installing it, I noticed that I'm getting a lower score than before on Cinebench 20. About 30 minutes ago, before installing the Hyper 212, I was getting a score of around 3500-3700. Now, with the Hyper 212, I'm getting around 3200. Temps are really good; they used to be a maximum of 65°C on Cinebench, and now they are a maximum of 55°C. What could be the reason for this decrease in score?

Thanks!
