Hi,

I recently noticed that my Ryzen 7 5800X temperatures are very high. It idles at 50-70°C and reaches 90°C while gaming (Fc 25, CSGO, Fortnite).

I have an Antec C40 Pro CPU cooler. I know the cooler is somewhat weak for this CPU, but I just want to make sure that getting a better cooler will result in good temperatures for this CPU.

By the way, I haven't overclocked the CPU; everything is set to default in the BIOS.
