The cooler seems to be working well, but at around 80°C the CPU still feels warm. That’s normal for most systems.

Check if the system runs smoothly at 80°C during idle, gaming, or when using Prime 95.

You're focusing on reaching the 80 C target. If it's a high-stakes scenario like Warzone, that's perfectly acceptable.

What's the best option for a cooler and CPU?

Ryzen 3 3300X paired with Arctic Freezer 34 for gaming setup, total power draw around 150W.

This CPU appears quite powerful, possibly beyond what's needed for typical gaming. Someone familiar with it could share more details.

For some reason AMD doesn't display the maximum safe temperature on their site for the 3300x, yet most similar Zen 2 chips have a TJMax around 95°C. If you're at 80°C, it falls within the acceptable range, though staying cooler is preferable. You might want to test your cooler setup to confirm. That level of heat is significant for a 4-core processor. Just a reminder, if someone claims 80°C is fine without considering your specific hardware or cooling solution, disregard any general tech recommendations.
