Hey everyone! I'm feeling a bit like a newbie here. For the past couple of weeks, my CPU temperature has been hovering between 67-70°C while gaming on Battlefield 6. My GPU is handling most of the load, showing temps around 65-70°C at most. Today, though, it peaked at 75°C. I live in Georgia and it was unusually warm today, but my room AC is set to a comfortable 69°F, and it still hit 75°C. Should I be concerned about this? Just for context, my setup includes a 9070XT, a Gigabyte B650M Gaming Plus WiFi motherboard, 32GB of DDR5 Teamgroup RAM, and a 1000W PSU.

75 degrees is really not a big deal at all. Those aren’t high temps for your setup. The 9800X3D is a 120W CPU, so it's expected to get warm! If you're noticing high temps, maybe check your airflow.
Your temps seem fine. My 9070XT runs at 60-65°C under full load, and the hotspot can hit 70-75°C. Your system is still in a good range.
Honestly, I wouldn’t stress too much about 75°C. Ryzen AM5 CPUs start throttling around 95°C to avoid damage. If your cooler is too noisy, you can tweak the fan settings in your BIOS.
That temp range is completely normal! My 7800X3D runs around the low 70s with a Phantom Spirit Evo 120 SE. If you're worried about the temperatures, you might want to try a negative offset with the curve optimizer. Just keep an eye on performance; cooling might improve, but it can also limit your boost speeds.
What kind of cooler are you using?
