Hey everyone! I've been running an OCCT test on my CPU because I was concerned I might have messed up the thermal paste when I installed my water cooler. I'm using a Ryzen 5 9600X, and after 5 minutes of being at full load (4830 MHz), the temperature is sitting at 53 degrees Celsius. This seems much lower than what I've seen in YouTube videos of others testing their CPUs with similar setups. Is this temperature normal?

Your temperature is perfectly fine! Many people might report higher temps, but being just under 60 degrees Celsius is considered a great spot for most CPUs. You probably just got lucky with your cooler and thermal paste application. Just enjoy your setup!
Haha, I'm thinking of starting an AIO installation business based on my luck too, thanks for the reassurance!
