Accidentally tested my cooling the hard way

Discussion

It happened because I was running a bunch of stuff at once last night had a game downloading, a stream open on one monitor, Discord on another, and was just waiting, killing time. Out of nowhere, my PC fans went full jet engine. At first I thought something was broken, but when I checked the temps, my CPU was sitting at 91°C. Turns out I had background updates running too, so everything piled up at once. Honestly, I think my case fans deserve a medal because it didn’t crash. It made me realize I’ve never really stress-tested my build properly until that moment. Anyone else ever accidentally push their rig to its absolute limit without meaning to?
