I don't know what you're thinking, but this guy has massive issues with both case airflow and CPU temperatures. Everything else is going to fail because of those heat levels. From the power supply to the motherboard and all the peripherals.
It's obvious to me that fan noise is getting on his nerves, so he's throttling RPMs wherever he can just to quiet things down.
He probably wants peace and quiet, which I understand—that's why I installed a massive liquid cooling setup with a heavy-duty radiator nearly 20 years ago.
According to Intel's specs, his CPU hits a max temp of about 72C, at which point it should throttle to prevent itself from burning up. It exceeds that, as far as I know, though I've never actually seen a CPU slow down and then stutter back to life on screen... if memory serves, you might see that in AIDA software, but I won't bother looking it up since it's irrelevant here.
How can anyone allow a CPU to run that hot?
In the past, CPUs used to burn out because they didn't have automatic thermal throttling built in.
There's no surprise there; errors will occur and Windows will inevitably crash. The hardware will follow suit.
It's also possible something is misconfigured in the BIOS preventing the fans from running correctly.
If you want a high-performance machine, you have to live with the noise it produces.
Unless you have the expertise or the money—or just the money.
Option one: install a massive, heavy-duty air cooler instead of that cheap, standard garbage. You pay once and you own it for life across future platforms. If necessary, adding a large case fan is standard practice.
Option two: liquid cooling. It costs twice or three times as much as a top-tier air cooler. You need the water block, the pump, tubing, fittings, and a large radiator. If the radiator is small, you're better off sticking to air. Ideally, mount a large radiator outside the case with one big fan spinning at 800 RPM. It's expensive, but it's much quieter. Moving on—if someone has a powerful GPU that’s too loud because they don't know how to perform Underclocking or Undervolting, they can water-cool that too, but that's even more expensive. And even then, if the power supply fan still bothers them, you're looking at even higher costs for liquid cooling everything.
Generally speaking, smaller fans are louder because they need much higher RPMs to cool effectively. Larger fans require fewer RPMs, making them much quieter.
I recommend a large air cooler for the CPU, weighing at least 600g, preferably 800g. Just make sure to support the weight so it doesn't stress the motherboard or cause the PCB to warp. That helps significantly. Large coolers use large fans, allowing you to drop the RPMs without worry.
Run it at 800-1200 RPM and the CPU will likely be 10-20C cooler.
Now I have a question.

How can young people be more experienced when you are specifically asking the youth?
I've met roughly 100,000 people, and I have never encountered a young person who was more experienced.
Where would they find people like me? They aren't around. Think back to when you were young—what did you actually know?
The only thing you knew was how to throw money away. Most young people know that; it's standard. Otherwise, they know nothing, because you spend your entire life learning.
No one is born wise. Even an animal knows more and learns to walk and eat independently faster than that.
I hesitated to say anything because you were seeking help from the youth, and... well, I am no longer young.
That is my opinion, unfortunately.
Back when I was unemployed, I watched companies look for young people who supposedly had 30 years of experience. Where in the world are you supposed to find that?
Companies that only hire "young people" won't last long and won't find success. They'll fail quickly because their management isn't smart enough.
Companies that respect their veterans while mentoring the next generation have a fighting chance at longevity. They integrate young talent with seasoned experts and retain senior staff when necessary. These are the organizations that actually succeed.
Unfortunately, you also deal with young people who refuse to learn from those with experience. They insist on doing things their own way, which makes life difficult for everyone around them. A smart manager will see this coming. If you offer guidance and help only to be met with ingratitude, don't expect it to last. They’ll eventually fail at some mundane, soul-crushing job and end up turning to the bottle.
Best regards,
