Hello, I installed Afterburner and noticed extremely high temperatures. I’ll share the photos later. My setup includes an RTX 3060 Ti, an i7-9700K CPU, the Artic Duo cooler with Gunner 110R case stock fans. I’m seeing CPU temps above 100 and GPU temps over 80, which is unusual.

The temps behave differently after removing the side panel, as it appears to create a highly restrictive airflow environment.

You haven't taken off the plastic from the heatsink yet. The fans aren't spinning much unless you run the PC for a while. When you remove the side panel and check inside, the air feels warm.

I removed the side panels and reached 83% CPU utilization. The interior air feels warm, but all fans are running.

Very high temperatures occur on the desktop or during a stress test. Which one depends on the specific scenario being examined.

It seems the airflow isn’t moving properly and fresh air isn’t circulating. You might want to inspect the filters on the case or ensure the fans are spinning at adequate speeds. Using a tool like https://getfancontrol.com/ could help adjust them. I recently replaced the fans on my PC and saw a drop of 10-15 degrees in temperature—high-quality fans really do help. They’re worth considering for a quieter, cooler setup.
