As I am doing renderings, my CPU can reach temperatures up to 180F(80C). Is this too hot to be running consistently for upwards of 2-3 hours? Also to be noted, I am using a Corsair H100i to cool the CPU.
 
Depends on your CPU.

If you have an FX-series AMD CPU it's definitely too hot. If you have an Intel CPU it's still within spec (albeit barely).

EDIT: Are you running an OC? A H100i should produce much better results on any stock CPU.
 


I have an i7 4770k. Yes, OC'd to 4.0.
 


My current voltage is 1.2v
