While 85-86c is not ideal, it isn't an immediate threat to the health of your computer. I would make sure the cooler and insides of the pc are dust free. If the temps don't come down I would replace the coolers thermal paste.

So are you saying is safe for now

It's not going to hurt anything to use it like that. I would make an attempt to lower the temps tho as it will lower fan noise and be generally better for the processor over long periods of time.

What temperatures did you get previously? This is at the top of the temperature scale you want it to get too, if higher than it used to be then cleaning the cooler and changing the thermal paste would be a good start.

Didn't check for long time since I bought it but I was experiencing some hotness when touch that's where I try to check the temps using speed fun

Ok, I’d still clean the cooler and change the thermal paste.
