Pc overheating

[MegaMoosh]

Hello, I was planning to leave my pc on for 2 hours as I need to install GTA again (I installed a new graphics card and its messing GTA up) and it's been on for like 2 hours so will I damage it by leaving it on for too long? Keep in mind I have 3 fans on the case, I set it to turn off after 2 hours, I am VERY paranoid as it's really expensive and I've had it for a month.

No it will not overheat.

no, assuming you have adequate active cooling and you are not running any intensive processes.

if you have good cooling you should be fine

 

generally i'd always recommend a stress test on a new build to see if the ventilation is good under load, if not then that should be something you should've invested more research if its a serious issue

 

i can't see what you did (spacing, hardware, specs, etc.) based on a lack of a lot of information

What are your specs? You can run a synthetic load to see what your peak temps are. If your temps are fine under a heavy synthetic load, they'll be fine under just about any other situation.
