This processor simply by its construction is like that and so everyone has, no matter what cooling you have. I have Fera 3 and it's enough. This processor is hot for everyone and everyone. This is my third Ryzen and Ryzen, and this one is outstanding, they have temperature jumps, voltage spikes, clock spikes and it does not affect their lifespan at all. I will not do any undervolting, in load tests in OCCT, but in normal mode, max 84-85 degrees, in extreme mode it takes a minute and it is also around 90 degrees. And so does everyone, unless you have billion-dollar cooling. It doesn't matter if you have Fera 3 or 5 or you have Fortis 3 or 5, the processor will still be hot under full load, and the difference can be 2-3 degrees. This is a gaming processor if you knew you wanted to process VIDEO or work on it and constantly load it 100% and to the max then you should get a different processor. This processor is hot as long as it is 85 degrees, there is absolutely nothing to worry about and I think that AMD itself writes that this processor can work at 90 degrees all the time and so it will be and AMD knows very well that this processor can safely and work at 90 degrees all the time.
