Welcome to TPU
In your other thread you asked for a program to measure temperatures and I suggested Speccy which you liked. What were the temperatures you had for the processor and the graphics card?
Perhaps they are not so warm...
Also the best thing is to check the temperatures while you have a game playing, because that is the point when a computer most heats up.
If your temperatures are highish, before considering watercooling it is simpler (and cheaper) to try out if your case needs an extra fan or two. How many fans does your case have (excluding power supply fan, processor fan and graphics card fan)?
my i5 took up to 50 degrees. Card took up to 7(and I already put fan speed to 100). I think it is bad. And my PC is producing too much heat (IMO) my case has 2 fans. 1 on side and one at the back.
