I've noticed that when I'm playing games like Roblox or Minecraft, my CPU and GPU often hit 100% utilization. I have an RX 550 4GB graphics card and an i5 7400 processor, along with 16GB of RAM. I currently only have one chassis fan since the other one is broken. I'm quite confused about whether this level of utilization is normal or if there's something I should be worried about. Thanks in advance for your insights!

Yes, it's pretty normal for your CPU and GPU to reach 100% utilization while gaming. It means your hardware is maxed out and working as hard as it can to run the game. Just like driving a car at full speed, this shows you're pushing your system to its limits. As long as your temperatures are under control, you're good!
Your components are really giving it their all, which is typical for games. Just remember, your i5 7400 is getting a bit old, but if you're comfortable with the performance, then don’t stress too much. You can always consider an upgrade down the line for better performance.
Thank you very much for the reassurance!
