Just built a new gaming pc specs but computer get's hot when playing games like PLAYERUNKOWNS BATTLEGROUNDS, my cpu and motherboard get's up to 50c. When idling it usually is at 28c or 30c.

Here are my specs:
Cpu:Intel Core i7 @ 4.20GHz
Ram:2 8gb sticks of ddr4
Motherboard:Asus Z170-A
Gpu:Gtx Nvidea 1050Ti
Heatsink:Cooler Master 212 Evo
I also have 4 case fans with good airflow, why is my pc so hot? Or is this even considered hot?

50c on your CPU is by no means too hot. That's completely normal and within spec. If you're reaching in to the 70s or 80s and you're not overclocked then something may be up but 50c under load is all good

Thank you for your answer, but is it also okay if my motherboard reaches those temps too?

50 is fine. You can play around with your 4 case fans and make sure there's enough air coming in to ensure the exhaust fans have enough to push out. Many people put 4 fans in exhaust and its basically pointless if you don't have any/enough fans pulling cool air IN to the case.
