High temperatures in the 5100s are extreme and not feasible for most systems.

Hi, your setup looks fine overall. The fan behavior you described could be due to airflow restrictions or case ventilation issues. Try opening the case more fully and ensuring the fans spin freely. Also, check if dust buildup is affecting airflow. If the problem persists after these changes, consider a thermal paste replacement.
This board looks quite low quality—I wouldn’t purchase it for a 6-core processor. You might consider lowering the voltage in BIOS instead.
The stock cooler functions but isn’t comfortable. Invest in a basic tower cooler for improved results.
Occasionally, without adequate internal cooling and stable power for the CPU, performance can drop significantly. Using an I7 10700 on a Gigabyte B460M DS3H will push it to 80°C+ and cause losses. In contrast, pairing an I5 10600k with a Gigabyte Z490 AORUS Ultra allows you to overclock until the chip limits are reached—provided you have sufficient cooling.
