I'm new to water cooling and fan management, and I could use some advice! I recently installed an ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 along with a new CPU, and I have to say, this AIO cooler was way louder than I expected! After tinkering with fan curves, I've managed to get it pretty much silent now. However, I'm a bit concerned about my Ryzen 7 9800X3D temperatures. Initially, my idle temp was around 33-34°C, but now it's sitting at about 42°C. When I game, the CPU temp ranges between 55-64°C, mostly idling at 55°C. Are these temperature readings normal? Also, do you have any tips or guides for setting up the right fan curves? Thanks a ton!

Those temperatures are great for your CPU, especially with an efficient AIO like yours. Just ensure your BIOS and chipset drivers are up to date for optimal performance.
Your temps are looking just fine! As long as the noise level is tolerable for you, that's what really matters.
OH! I forgot to update my BIOS! Thanks for the reminder!
