Hello! Sooo I want to upgrade my PC and have a budget of around 700-800 euros. My system is working fine at the moment but now I got the time and especially money to do some upgrading, even if it may not be necessary. However, since around 3 months or so, my CPU gets extremely hot (90-98°C) when playing specific games for 1-2+ hours (Apex Legends, ARK, Rainbow 6,...) and I don't exactly know why, so maybe you could give me some advice regarding that as well because I'd like to get that fixed before upgrading (or maybe through replacing/upgrading something like my CPU or CPU cooler).
My Specs: (every component was bought around 3 years ago, and my PC is turned on for 10-14 hours (working + gaming) everyday since then)
CPU: i7 7700K @4.20 GHz (Turbo-Boost disabled since my temp issues)
GPU: GTX 1080 - Palit Super Jetstream
Mainboard: ASRock Z270 Killer SLI
RAM: 16 GB DDR4 2400MHz
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i V2 240mm (may be the source of my temp issues?)
PSU: 700W beQuiet! Pure Power 9
I completely cleaned my rig from dust (including the cooler radiator) with a compressed air spray and replaced my thermal paste, which didn't really fix my temp issue (temps went down by around 5°C). And in case it's important to know, I have 3 fans at the front of my case to take in air, 1 in the back as "exhaust" and the H100i radiator sits at the top of the case.
I highly appreciate any help, since I'm not a hardware pro (but I think I am able to exchange any part of my rig if necessary, since I was able to build it in the first place ) and don't really know where to start or what the best upgrade would be. Thanks in advance!!
