Ryzen 5 3500...Are these temperatures normal?

micropage7 · Oct 31, 2021

actually you need no worry about the temp, it might be higher but still on acceptable range, except you have something weird happen when you do your work

A bit on the hot side, admittedly, but your PC should have no problems handling it. You may want to swap the RAM for something faster if you intend to use it for gaming. 3600MHz CL16 is optimal for Zen 2.

I see this advice basically everywhere, but it's just a waste of money, imo. Faster RAM may give you a measurable difference, but not an observable one. Meaning, your benchmarks may achieve higher scores, but you won't feel a thing while actually playing a game. Unless you come from something like a basic 2133 MHz kit.

I am running a 16gb ddr4 2666 basic kit from crucial...working well without any lags or stutters for 2 years now..

you should replace it for something at least 3200 or Overclock it (i would try this first), the gains you get until you reach 3200 are insane, after that it's very marginal. I did the test myself using a couple game benchmarks.

Shifting that top exhaust fan further towards the rear may help shave a degree or two off your temperatures

yep, the top fan is sucking out the air from the front fans before it gets to the cooler.

Well...its a work in progress.... i have added some deepcool rgb fans to the top....and....i broke the bracket on one of the deep cool gamerstorm fans...so i had to switch over to the original cooler master rf 120 fans for now..and i have not dusted my case yet..

i have reversed the top fans as intake to see if get any better temps..if not, i would go back to exhaust at top...

top fans are a bit of a weirder subject when it comes to air cooling. With watercooling its a no-brainer. But in your situation it may actually be best to have the one towards the front be intake, and the one towards the rear be exhaust as weird as that seems.

Nah its not weird.. That's how I run mine when I do run top fans. Top front to feed the CPU and cool my ramsicles, and top rear as exhaust to buddy up with the rear exhaust. People talk about a hot air loop, but its never been a problem for me. I usually use 120x38s but have retired most of them, the eldest ones

But currently have none in my system. Still a bit weird for me because I used them since 2006.

Okay...now i have cleaned the case, configured the front top fan as intake and rear top fan as exhaust..i found a reduction in boot load temps from 55c to 52c......idle temps decreased from 47c to 43c....and load temps from 74.9 to 73.5 in cine bench (with 3 passes).....works for me...

Thanks to everyone for their kind and expert guidance.... :peace:
