Is my prebuild GAME-PC to HOT?

So it is not good for my cpu?

Its not as bad as some here make you think. Its not perfect either. Normal max temps for non-OC Intel CPUs are 75-85C. Danger levels are over 95C. You would get better temps by either improving airflow inside case (new case or better fans / fan setup), downvolting CPU (not sure if this is possible with your mobo) or by getting aftermarket cooler (which you need to remove if you want to RMA/use warranty again).

Basically, like everyone else said, your CPU is toasty but not gonna melt. As for the GPU, should be fine. My 980 Ti runs at 83C once it's been gaming for about 30 minutes, and just stays there. That said, your GPU should be cooler, since it makes a lot less heat, but probably still has dual fans. So adding more case fans will bring your temps down a bit. But again, nothing is going to melt, so if it'll void your warranty or something, you don't have to do it.

I can try to add case fans! When I have back my game-pc, I will see if I can do that! (Divorced parents) Downvolting CPU, I don't go try that because I have no experience! Maybe my GPU temperature is maybe too high! Is a new aftermarket cooler really needed or hold I the warranty? My CPU is not going over the 95°C so is not dangerous... :D

Thats actually really simple thing to do. With auto setting mobo will boost voltage when CPU is used. Meaning that voltage will go up to 1.25-1.28V under load. Thats way too high for non-OC'd CPU. Default is something like 1.1V. So around 1.15-1.2V would drop temps. But its more about can you do that with mobo or not.

It sound like a build up of dust. Do you keep your PC on carpet or in a dusty environment?

Nope, it is on my desk! It also doesn't have dust in it!

Idk if I go do that... I think about it!

The temps you were reporting were super high, and from the sounds of it you cannot change/add anything hardware related because you can't remove the side panel!

 

I am very intrigued to see what kind of cooling solutions you have. From this picture I pulled from the web, I cannot see any rear exhaust fan, and even if it had front fans, they would be smothered.

 

But even still, thats super high temps for a new 7th gen CPU

The picture looks the same like my Acer predator! I don't know if I can change something... I'll see if it can! But for now, I have a lot of homework so first that!

That's because it is an Acer Preditor . . . and it's the exact one you quoted, "Acer Preditor G3" or something like that.

 

But yeah, first thing I would do is look into your warranty information cause you need to look inside!

Once you do, take a pic and post it here. We'll be able to help you if we get a clearer picture :)
