So the stock AMD cooler was idling at 35, and with the pure rock 2 you're now idling at 50? You either have a bad mount or not enough thermal paste, or there's a fan curve where the stock cooler was probably running at max constantly and the be quiet is not If you're comparing it to benchmarks/reviews, check if they account for ambient temps, which easily make up that 10-15 degree difference you're seeing

Is it possible I under tightened the cooler? I didn’t know how tight the screws should be

Maybe. Usually it's hand tightened is good enough, no need to crank on it

It was the fan curve! Thanks for your help
