So recently I was playing Counter-Strike :GO

 

and started feeling that my PSU is producing so much heat.  My pc case is Rosewill TYRIFING it comes with 2 120mm fans, one on front and the exhaust fan.

 

After noticing the heat, I unplugged everything and checked if my PSU was dusty, but it was clean.

 

 

(sorry for the cable management)

My specs are 

 

CPU: i5 7600k (not overclocked)

Mobo: Gigabyte z270m-D3H

GPU: Nvidia GTX 760 wind force

CPU cooler: Cryorig C7 CR-C7A

Storage: 1TB WD and a Samsung hard drive 640 GB.  The PSU fan is spinning and pretty sure all other fans spin too

Power supply is probably working a little hard. The 760 can draw near 200 watts by itself.

A 600B should not have much trouble with that.

 

The PSU will get hot and I wouldn't worry but if it concerns you enough, contact EVGA support.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
