Hey guys

I built this PC a week ago and downloaded steam on it. I am playing a free fps game for the moment and my CPU temp is around 70 and 77 is this normal and if not what could I do to improve it?

These are my components

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600x
GPU: nvidia geforce gtx 1080
Motherboard: Asus x370 pro
Power supply: corsair cs650m
Ram: 16gb of corsair vengeance
Fan for CPU: thermal take contact silent 12 (air)


 
Solution
A good way to see if the cooling is effective is how fast to cools to normal after gaming. I would also advise checking your case's airflow. Personally I would advise a Liquid Cooling system.
