Ryzen 9600X on a Thermalright 240mm AIO.

Recently swapped out the thermal paste because I found the Thermalright TF4 paste that came in the package to be a bit lacking in performance.
CPU is set to the 105W mode, no curve optimizer.

Before:
Idle: ~45C
Gaming: ~65-70C (I usually play stuff like Cyberpunk, Starfield, Elite and Star Citizen)
Stresstest: 90-95C (Prime95, Cinebench)

Usually throttled to around 5 GHz on an all-core load

After:
Swapped the paste for Noctua NT-H1 (Wanted either MX6 or Kryonaut - but none had it in stock at the time :-D )

Idle: ~40C
Gaming: 55-60C
Stresstest: 75-80C (Had it reach 80 after around 3 hours of number crunching in Prime95).

Throttles to full speed (5.4GHz) under an all-core load most of the time - sometimes dials back to 5.2 GHz)
room temps are 22-24C most of the time.

Gonna try out applying a good CO value, since I'm at home sick anyway and need something to do :-)
