Hello, I have an ACER Predator Orion 3000 PO3-600 (my first "gamer" PC):
GeForce GTX 1660 Ti
I5 9400 CPU @ 2.90GHz
12 GB RAM
I use it to play games like Warzone, Fortnite... However, since the beginning my PC heats up to 82° while gaming. The fans are also quite loud.
Can you tell me if this is normal or if I should contact the seller (Boulanger)? This worries me, especially since I'm starting to experience crashes in Warzone. Thank you to those who take the time to reply.
Best regards.

Hello,
look here:
https://ark.intel.com/content/www/en/us/ark/products/134898/intel-core-i5-9400-processor-9m-cache-up-to-4-10-ghz.html
The temperature can reach 100 °C!
It's normal if you stress your PC a lot; you can always change the CPU cooler for a more efficient model.

Hello,
thank you for your response.
I would also like to clarify that I am talking about the graphics card that reaches 82°. Furthermore, I have the option to "manage" my fans. Currently, they are set to "auto" because, firstly, I find that it already makes quite a bit of noise. However, I can set them to "gaming" mode which indeed lowers the temperature (70/75 max). Of course, the noise is much more intense... Is it a problem to run these fans at full speed?

It is certain that the more the equipment is used, the more it wears out, but it is better for it to be the fans than the rest.
Heat is a major enemy of computing; by properly cooling it down, your PC will perform better and last longer.
I therefore advise you to run the fans at full speed, but also to consider replacing or purchasing additional fans.

Unfortunately, it's a built PC that I bought from ACER. The PC is still under warranty, so I don't want to tamper with it too much, and anyway, I'm not sure I can change certain components since I assume manufacturers "block" the possibility of changing some parts... I'm not very clear in my statements, but I don't know if replacing certain components is possible.
No need to get worked up ;) I'm just giving you some advice.
Fortunately, there's a fan (there are even 4 or 5).

Vacuum the air filters; if dust is blocking the filters or air intakes, it reduces cooling performance.

No, I'm not getting angry, sorry if that was misinterpreted ^^. I will try all of this, thank you very much. By the way, I am reaching out one last time... someone sent me this message: "you can have extra memory installed by a professional, it won't change your warranty," "anyway, the memory upgrade will be covered by the professional's warranty and if your PC fails due to a bad installation, his warranty covers you, and if the other equipment fails, you can invoke the warranty as long as you have an invoice for the installation." Do you think it's true that I can make modifications by a pro to avoid any issues with the warranty?
You can always try, but what you are talking about is mainly handled by the graphics card, and unless you change it...
You can check with some tools (process explorer, MSI afterburner...) the usage rate of the graphics card and see if it's overheating or causing a bottleneck (hwmonitor https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html)
Thank you.
It is indeed clear that it is mainly the CPU/ram duo that is working, while the GPU and the Vram are underutilized. Update your graphics drivers, it could be the cause. However, since the home or configuration screen is in 2D and not in 3D, it is normal for the GPU to be less engaged, as the game has not yet started. I assume that the screenshot is from Warzone, but the game has not yet begun.
74% CPU and 84% RAM (out of 12 GB) is quite high for a waiting screen. But indeed, 16 GB is recommended for Warzone.
In any case, if you are playing with the graphics options maxed out, it is normal for it to overheat.

As for the drivers, they are up to date. I check regularly. Partially launched, it's at 100% for the CPU.
For graphics, everything is set to low except textures which are on normal, and display quality on normal. The rest is turned off or at the lowest...
Moreover, I find that the 1980 resolution (which I believe is the default) significantly drains power from the PC. When I lower the resolution, my PC struggles less. But the quality is awful. And for a FPS game, especially from a distance, it's complicated... do you think I should then change the RAM?
