Hello. I have a custom built PC for gaming (specs below). Currently, whenever I run any game at all, my computer and PSU especially, run way hotter than they should. Is this some sort of software issue? Should I consider new fans or a new case?

CPU; AMD FX-6300 six core
Graphics: EVGA GTX 1050ti
PSU: EVGA 650w G2
Memory: Nemix 16gb DDR3
HDD: WD 1TB 7200 RPM

How are you monitoring the PSU? If you meant CPU then try reapplying thermal paste or clearing out all dust from every nook an cranny in the machine. Use a air compressor but dont blow the fans to fast has you can damage them.
