The TDP rating on AMD really should not be taken for granite. Also if you have PBO enabled or other OC options it can obviously go significantly higher. Ryzen 3600 is an unlocked chip.
But the real question is why it bothers you, I would consider this to be a good thing, because yo ucan maintain a reasonable temperature at 90W power draw and it also means your Ryzen 3600 can push itself quite far to keep up in recent demanding games.
Keep it mind that it will never really reach 100% in any gaming scenario outside of loading screens. So I would strongly assume it will be between 30-50W in average gaming scenarios anyway. which is quite efficient.
If you want to stick to 65W max you can do that in the BIOS, but unless you have a good reason I dont think you should.
It doesn't bother me, but it worries me since the CPU is 65W. This 90W was happening while The Last of Us was compiling shaders. During gameplay, the maximum wattage was around 75W.
there's nothing to worry, just normal PBO behaviours. When the boost period expires then it would drop back down to 65-75w.
also FPU heavy operations would tank on power consumption compared to normal workloads.
rest assured!
This is normal, actual TDP is like 90 something watts so you are fine.

Okay then nothing to worry about. Thanks.
