Finally comfortable enough with the new system to start doing a little tweaking. Ive followed this basic guide to tweak my 7800X3D a little...

Ive read stuff about setting LLCs on the motherboard to keep voltages stable but I havent gone as far as that yet. I currently have it set to -20 since most 7800X3Ds should be able to hit that without much problem according to my research. I might tweak the voltage next and try undervolting a little for better temps.
Also noticing that these chips tend to idle higher than previous CPUs I have experienced. My 8600k would idle as low as 32-35'c where as this chip here idles 45-50'c. I also did some googlefu and found Im not the only one that has been curious about the higher idle temps compared to other chips.
Is there anything else I should be particularly worried about?
P.S - Temps did hit almost 80c while Heilos was burning in but I think PTM has settled now. Its also gotten a lot cooler here room temperature wise and im hitting 59-65'c while gaming.
