Hi everyone! I just built a new PC, but I'm a bit concerned because the metal casing is reading 110°F. I've checked everything – removed the thermal wrappings from the CPU fan and heat sinks, and ensured the case fans are installed correctly. The PC runs just fine, even for gaming, but I'm wondering if I'm missing something here? Any advice would be appreciated!

110°F is pretty normal for a PC case! If it were 110°C, you'd have a real problem. Don't stress too much about this.
Honestly, if your PC handles load fine and runs games without issues, you're in a safe zone!
Have you checked your CPU or GPU temperatures using some monitoring software? The case temp can vary a lot based on the location you measured it from and the specific case design. Sharing more details about your case could help if you're still worried!
That's about 43°C, which is perfectly fine for a PC. You're good!
Just a heads up, average idle CPU temps are normally around 35-45°C (95-120°F), so your case temp seems normal. Just make sure the airflow around your case is good as well!
Thanks for clarifying! I'll keep that in mind.
