I've been playing Hunter: Call of the Wild lately, and I've noticed my PC temperatures reaching around 75 to 80 degrees Celsius, with the top of the case getting pretty hot. I've looked online and found that this could be normal, but I wanted to hear your thoughts on it. Here are my PC specs:
- 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700KF (3.60 GHz)
- 32.0 GB RAM (31.9 GB usable)
- 10GB graphics card
If you need more info, just let me know! Thanks in advance for the help!

Your CPU temperatures are warm but not too concerning. Intel i7s, especially from the newer generations, tend to run hot, and your CPU’s thermal limit is 100°C before it starts throttling performance. It's not uncommon for them to hit the mid-70s or even low 80s during heavy gaming sessions.
Got it, thanks! Should I be worried about the top of my case getting hot as well, or is that typical? It cools off quickly once I stop playing.
