That's why I've been trying to suss out how to get "PROCHOT" indicator to display in Ryzen Master, as that would be unquestionable evidence of thermal throttling. But it won't do that, even when I hit 117C. Which is what I don't get, and why I think maybe my temp sensor is borked, and why my idle temps are 55-66C.
Nothing really happens when it hits 95C, other than it just kinda hangs out at 94.5C most of the time, and sometimes, you see a core popping up showing "sleep", and sometimes you see the all-core Mhz go down briefly.
Edit: I'm running 12 threads of PrimeGrid, and all-core Mhz is 3700Mhz, and slightly below. PPT is 94-98% of 88W.
That's what gets to me, a little, and I guess it must just be the cubby, and case cooling, and airflow, since it crept up to 95C with every cooler that I've tried. The Gammaxx 400 is a 130W TDP cooler, so, logically I would hope, if the CPU is only accepting 88W worth of power (Package Power shows a high of 90W in HWMonitor), that that would be way below the cooler's TDP, and that it could dissipate the heat, before it would build up and "creep up". But I suppose, that would require case airflow too. I don't currently have my sides on, maybe that might make a difference.
Edit: My version of Ryzen Master is 2.0.0.1192. Is there a newer version? (Just downloaded a few days ago, after 7/7 launch.)
Edit: Just checked AMD.com, their oh-so-helpful download page for Ryzen Master, doesn't even give a version number, like their driver download page(s) do.
