Recently I observed my temperatures going up, so I decided to run a stress test. Initially, I had the glass panel removed and used the stock cooler—it's been three years since I bought it, I haven't changed the thermal paste, and it was underclocked to 2.8 GHz. I started with a 5-minute test using a fan blowing directly into the PC, reaching 71°C at full load. After turning off the fan for another five minutes, temperatures climbed to 81-83°C as shown in the photos. When I played games like GTA 5 at maximum settings, temperatures reached 90°C, while my idle temps stayed between 45-50°C with only 3-6% load. Is this range acceptable for my PC under full load? My room is quite warm during the day, reaching about 42°C, and the ambient temperature is around 30°C.

High temperatures aren't always an issue. CPUs will automatically reduce performance if they get too hot (unless turned off), or may stop working completely if the heat becomes severe. The maximum temperature for a Ryzen 5 2600 is 95°C.
