So may be senors are giving some bogus data. In UEFI, chipset temperature is close, but fluctuates around 60°C. Sensors on the other hand gives flat value.

Sapphire Pulse RX 5700XT by default has very passive fans profile, and runs quite hot on idle. Using radeon-profile I enabled better cooling fan curve, and chipset temperature went down! GPU is basically right in front of the flat heatsink on X570 Taichi, and when it's hot, it affects everything from the chipset to nvme drive that sit under that metal plate).

I have been a big fan of the open source drivers and have had a great experience with several amd cards now. The pulse looks like the one to get, but it would just be nice to get an opinion from someone using the open source linux driver.
Thanks again.

One thing to note. The GPU basiclaly stops fans rotation when under low load, and runs at around 50-51°C. When under load, fans start rotation. 50°C is a bit high to my taste, but to lower it, I'd need to use radeon-profile for the custom fan curve.
It might be not so bad after all, since the only downside is that heat spreads to the metal heatsink on the motherboard, that covers X570 chipset and NVMe drive. So because of that, NVMe runs at around 45°C on idle. When I set custom fan curve for the GPU, NVMe drive temperature drops to 35°C or so. Probably not very critical difference though.
I haven't tested the second BIOS with that switch. I simply put it to more performant one.
