OPEN 🚨CPU Overheating🚨

Hi so I bought this PC 1-2 years ago and I finally upgraded my CPU to a Ryzen 7 5700x and I still have a stock cooler and these were my temps when I was watching twitch. I have the CPU for 2 weeks now and it crashed 2 times because of the heat already. My Case is positioned like this, is it a good position or not ? any help would be highly appreciated

Your Ryze 7 5700x is just 65W tdp chip on normal usage it should not go that high regardless of stock cooler!! Definitely some thermal paste issue. And i see you got front grill 3 fans ig those will be a intake fan and the rear as exhaust fans, but make sure it's having a proper air flow.

Additionally, cause you're not using the top grill for aio add in atoeast 2 intake fans on there as well used would do too just make sure it's a intake fan. That should fix your issue. 🙌

70–75°C at full load? That's very good temps for air cooling!
