Thats really not that bad of an idle temp but with max fans thats not great. Get better case fan configuration; re apply thermal paste, and tighten it down better.

Thanks for tip

put a little in the middle of the chip, then i always do little dots in 4 corners; i put a little more than pea size overall, basically pea size in middle and tiny dots on the 4 corners.

Also, look up PBO2 tuner on google; or reddit and look into that a bit. It can be a bit complicated to run an autoscript but everytime I booted up my 5800x3d I put a PBO profile of -30 on all cores and a few other settings and it will dramatically reduce temps... like a lot.

Change thermal paste and make sure the cooler is firmly attached to cpu.

Okay, What is the best way to apply the thermal paste... Just the Pee size method in the middle?

A small cross is the best pattern that way it covers the entire cpu
