I've been using an AIO cooler for my CPU, and I've noticed that my temperatures while gaming have increased from around 60-70°C to now hitting 80°C. Is this a normal occurrence, or is something wrong? What steps can I take to address this?

Yeah, if the room temperature is rising as summer approaches, that could be causing your CPU temps to rise as well. But if that’s not the issue, CPU temps shouldn’t really increase like that over time. You might want to consider repasting your CPU; it usually doesn’t fail that quickly.
It might sound basic, but have you cleaned your PC lately? Dust can build up in filters and on fan blades, which can impact cooling. After doing a thorough clean on my builds, I've seen a noticeable drop in temps. It’s worth a shot!
