Tested my new 5800X.
I need to buy some AIO because it goes to 90°C like nothing.
I'm currently learning about undervolting.
Did you peel the sticker from the coolers heatplate before installing it? 😜
Yes, I did peel it off.

My 6 heat pipes isn't enough, 120mm fans and probably a new case is needed.
It's xmas after all.
It should not be necessary to have a large cooler or an AIO for a 5800X, or any 8-core Ryzen. It is only a 105 watt chip. The temps will spike fairly high due to the small die size and heat concentration, but this is normal and adding a ton of cooling will not really do much. Beyond a certain point the heat can't leave the die quick enough for it to matter how quickly your cooler dissipates heat. Getting the heat away from the die as efficiently as possible is far more important with these chips... though realistically, they run fine in normal workloads even if the reported temps look high.
If you're using decent thermal paste and a cooler capable of dissipating 105 watts it should be sufficient. If you are hitting 90C under normal loads, I would check your thermal paste application first (assuming you were joking about the sticker... 🤣 ). Also, update your system BIOS and make sure the board isn't overvolting or applying PBO without your consent... a lot of them did that.
When I googled it 5800X cinebench temps, this is what came up immediately:
