7700k tends to run a bit warm, but those temperatures look okay. Thanks for the update—I just don’t want to spend 6k on a PC that might crash under it, especially since this is my first dual open loop setup. I thought a quick double check wouldn’t hurt.
No, 73 is a suitable temperature for a CPU, particularly one such as the 7700k. It becomes a concern when it reaches the high 80s. The situation also relies on your activity. Since it's currently at 73 with almost full CPU usage, it's acceptable. If it were idling at that level, I'd be concerned.
