I built my PC about 3 weeks ago. It's running, but after looking at analytics on usage, I'm noticing a few issues:
(Here's the parts list if you need: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JacdenSilveira/saved/Zx9r6h )
1. Even during intensive games, my CPU usage only reaches about 20%, usually lower.
2. My CPU package temp is abnormally high, running at 45-60 C just browsing the internet, reaching 80-90 C during gaming.
(SOLVED)3. During boot, both my SSD and hard drive appear, but when looking at file explorer, there is no hard drive option.
All of my drivers are updated.
Please, give me ideas on what could be wrong so I can fix this. It's stressful knowing I spent so much money on a PC and it's not working nearly as well as it should.

Edit 2: Getting a new CPU cooler, seems to be a common suggestion. Any advice on changing the fan layout? I have an extra 140 mm fan to add wherever it should be added.
