I'm currently running a Minecraft Server on my computer. I've run it for the past 5 days straight, my highest CPU temp is 60 degrees Celsius and my lowest CPU temp is 35 degrees Celsius. I'm thinking of getting a Corsair H80i to replace my Intel Stock CPU cooler so my CPU temperatures lower. Is that necessary? I will post pictures soon, My cable management is pretty good and my airflow is the best that it can be.

Thanks,

Ethan

Your temps are good, but it wouldn't hurt.

Your temps are fine for an i7. If you wanted to work the computer a little more, a h80 wouldn't hurt. In your use case though, I would say it isn't necessary - you're well into the safe zone of the i7s.
