High CPU Temperature in BIOS

I just got done putting together an X399 phantom Gaming 6 rig with a 1920X and my initial temps in the BIOS are showing 71.5 C under the hardware monitor tab. It seems really high but the system is responsive and seems to run fine.

I am not sure what BIOS temps should look like but this does seem excessive.

M/B temp is 29 C
V Core temps are between 26 and 28 C

Can someone else check their temps and let me know if I am crazy high. Rig fired right up and seems fine but I don't want to burn my first Threadripper.

no you're right, normal ryzen +10°C while TR +30°C offset

For the temperature cap, 100° and the offset is for the fans, for what I've understood, while the real cpu temperature limit is hardcoded in the cpu itself (for my ryzen should be 85°), so once there it starts throttling in order to reduce the load and keep the temperature there. This is the behaviour I observed. For istance, with heavy stress the temperature rockets to 80° (and so do the fans...) than gradually in few minutes reaches 85° and stays there forever (or until I kill the stressing processes). I never had a shut down due to the temperature level. Anyway you can test it yourself, simply burn an ISO (win PE or linux), boot it and stress the cpu (for linux I use stressng with matrix option), so even if you have a shutdown, you don't put at risk your working system and you can tweak more.

Thanks for responding. Sorry I didn't mention my m/B. It's the same as the OP on this thread, which is why I didn't mention it. Taichi x399, with UEFI 3.50; the latest. And there is a TCTRL temperature sensor option for the CPU fan control. It's the only one that controls the curve. I think the Threadripper has a higher temperature threshold than your CPU. But I may be wrong. Thanks for checking in.

hi
due to the reference of the OP to the fans I think that the problem is the well known one thet you can see in the forum first sticky thread.

The bios exposes two temperatures one for the fans (tDie temperature plus an offset of +30°C for the TR) and one for everyone (tDie).
The bios shows also the M/B temperature, that can also be set as reference for the fans.

So in Windows may be you see only one of the latters (tDie or M/B) while the fans are set to monitor tDie that to fans is exposed with the offset of +30°C.

To adjust them bahaviour use the Fan-tastic menu in bios to shape your fan curve and the sensor reference
