I recently adjusted the fan curve on my PC to make it super quiet at idle, but now my 9800X3D is idling at around 50-52°C. Is that a normal temperature? I'm currently using a Peerless Assassin 120 SE cooler, and I'm also thinking about upgrading to an Arctic LF3 Pro cooler.

50-52°C is totally fine for an idle temperature! You should be more concerned about the temps when under full load. It's actually pretty normal for CPUs to run warmer at idle depending on the cooler and fan setup you have.
What’s a good temp for full load then?
