So I bought an X79 bundle from china a few months ago and it all worked perfectly. Until i stopped using the PC for two months as it was my secondary PC, now when I try to turn it on, it displays an error It loads the bios splash screen but it displays B1InitializeLibraryFailed 0xc0000185 and...

it should be all good as long as its not putting strain on any other components (like pushing the motherboard/power connector down)

85 C seems a lot for long continuous gaming sessions, below 70 would be ideal, mid 70s would be fine IMO. But your symptoms are really like how my friend had with his GTX 1050 TI, it was due to a cheap power supply and it died after 2 years of heavy use. It only averaged around 72C but that...

as long as its not rubbing and everything is connected right, its all good

try unplugging your GPU and use the integrated graphics and install drivers for it

The Athlon 3000G is Zen+, to be sure, the motherboard box should have a sticker or something saying its "Ryzen 3000 Ready", if it only has the "Ryzen 2000 Ready", a BIOS update may be in order.

how much FPS are you getting? and is it stuttering?

Try only using 1 monitor, the GPU may be struggling.

I would recommend only replacing it when its hitting over 70C when OC'ed. But you can't go wrong with a cooler upgrade like the DR pro 4.

Did you remove the cooler from the GPU when you were cleaning?

well we wont know for sure if its a hardware issue or just MC. What is your CPU usage like in task manager when playing?

You can try basic troubleshooting, Try only 1 RAM stick and swap it on each RAM slot and let it run. But if that doesn't do anything, I would suggest disassembling and reassembling it all over again(If he doesn't have thermal paste, do not remove the cooler and the CPU). and try that. If it...

Try only using your default monitor and disconnect the TV.
