Only hot to humans, 212 Fahrenheit is bad for CPU (100 Celsius)

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

40C is totally fine - it's actually quite good.

Although it shouldn't damage the CPU, ~75C is where I'd start getting nervous.

My old rig was very happy in the mid 80s, ran for over 8 years no issues... Until I broke the AIO but that was my bad.

Unless your CPU's a locked chip (non k Intel) or there's a voltage wall you should try overclocking it higher.

How fast did you get into the bios after playing? The cpu can cool down pretty quick. That seems like an idle temp.
