Question Overheating PC

[Rhysics]

So all i changed was a 5v argp cable, I plugged in into a differnet slot than all of a suden my whole pc is getting so hot, my cpu and gpu are running at like 80 degrees Celcius and the actual case is hot to the touch. I have a RTX 3060 and an I7 11700K that is being cooled by a Corsair H100i pro and i have an NZXT h510 case. Any suggestions?

I suggest not keeping it running. I would recheck the power you plugged that cable into might be to high of voltage.

could be bad cable but seems unlikely. might need a different port?

With power connectors on a psu that are pcie labeled ports are the ones to use for gpu power. I built a pc recently and I have a 3060 it does not get that hot. I strongly suggest having the output of the psu tested

How long has the liquid cooler been in that system? They do require dusting. If your house is dusty compressed air works well just keep the can upright at all times. Some take them out and wash them that can be tricky with the coolant. I use fans and a third party air cooler.
