I have an ID cooling SE-225-xt in a push pull config. It's got 5 direct contact heatpipes (I know not always best vs plate) and overall it keeps my CPU very cool under a multitude of stress tests (CB23, P95, OCCT, etc.) Like usually well below 70c for most tests. Lately I've been dipping back into FarCry5 and Minecraft (kids) and even with ~40% usage, it will sometimes get my chip to 77-78c. I know this is well within spec for a Ryzen 5600X which is apparently good up to 95c before thermal throttle limits are reached but just curious if a different style cooler will help or if this is just the nature of the small die area on Zen 2 chiplets.
