I have had the ryzen 7 3700x with the MSI X570 Gaming Pro Carbon Wifi for about a week now. I soon noticed that the CPU was getting much too hot. After a lot of research and tinkering, I came to the conclusion that the CPU stock cooler can't seem to handle the boost clock. Have others also had this experience or is this a production error? If it is indeed normal for these processors to get so hot (I'm talking spikes > 90°C at boost clock) on the ryzen 3000 series, can anyone recommend me a good cooler to have on their ryzen 7 3700x (or stronger)? I would really appreciate any feedback, because I would really like to have the full performance at reasonable temperatures available and not just the 3.6GHz.
