Ryzen 5600 no x no g
Gigabyte B550i Auros Pro AX Rev 1.3 motherboard

TLDR - Stress testing using OCCT, everything seems fine except the CPU temps under load. Using 'Stabillity Test' /'Data Set''Large'/'Load Type''Variable'; the cpu temps are pushing 90C after just 30 seconds and continue to climb even after the processor throttles back to 2.3 Ghz. From what I'm reading online, high temps (95C) are okay with this CPU but to me this feels like a re-paste situation, I feel like this is too much throttle, yes? Thoughts?
Additional:
First iTx build ever! It's been great (so far). The only major issue I had was making sure the Bios was the correct version. Check your motherboard revs, right? For the B550i Rev 1.2 and 1.3, the bios is different. Instead of F15, the current rev for 1.3 is FCc.....I know right? After getting around those hieroglyphics I got everything posted, installed, updated and began stress testing and yeah, campfire. This is my first go around with the Ryzen 56XX series, the talk is they run hot but this feels too hot. I really appreciate the help I've gotten on this forum over the past few years so.....re-paste or is this normal behavior for a 5600 no x no g.
EDIT: Final update: Repasted with thermal grizzly, idle temp is now rock steady at 46 - 47C instead of fluctuating up to 51C. The thermal performance is slightly better, but using OCCT to put a load on the CPU, it's at 95C at about the 4 minute mark over a few tests, turning AMD PBO on/off has not influenced that. Granted, that's maxing all 12 threads, heck of a load, but the CPU has throttled as far back as 1.7 Ghz. This seems extreme, but I'm also not finding a lot of information on the internet. During normal use, videos, photoshop, light gaming there has been no chugging or glitching to indicate that this is affecting the overall performance of the system for what it's going to need to do. I've informed the customer of everything I've encountered, for now they're going to use it as is and keep me up to speed on what they like/don't like and we'll go from there. Thanks! -Jordan81
