You have just been unlucky. I've never had any such issue. Were you using stock CPU cooler? I'll admit the CPU cooler that comes in the box with AMD is atrocious.

I could not even be in the same room when using the stock cooler on my 3900x that I have now.
Had to use a radiator with silentwing fans to get it acceptable.

so this is also several years ago that you had this problem I don't I think you will have those problems with a modern GPU

Improving your PC's ability to dissipate heat would heat up your room, not make it cooler. You're essentially saying the stock cooler is better than a radiator with Silentwing fans
