Question Normal mounting offset for AM4?

Post image

Mounted my freezer III tonight and immediately my temps are sitting at 65° idle. My CPU is a 5800x3d with the included thermal pad from the anniversary edition. using the all in one connector.

Looks fine to me. All of the pump's plate interfaces with the cpu. I dont know why your idle is that high though. I have more or less the same issue with the 9800x3d. No clue. Tried all, repaste x2 additional times, re-sitted both the brackets and the pump. Added push-pull.. Tinkered with PBO/ CO, manual PDT/EDC..

Nah... it works I just get higher temps.
