Hi.
Hello.
PC:
Monitor:AORUS FI27Q
Cpu: 10850K with Nzxt Kraken X73 ( 60c in game )
Gpu: Rtx 3090 Gaming Oc ( 60C in game )
Ram: 32gb 2x16 GB DDR4 GSKILL 3200MHZ XMP
Psu: Seasonic Ultra Prime Titanium 850W TX
mb: Aorus 490 Pro Gaming
SSD: Crucial 1TB Nvm SSD
Case: Cooler Master Cosmos C700P

I must ask about smell of heat coming from pc case. I run Control and when gpu hits 62C and cpu 60C i smell warm air coming from case. Is this normal? Not burning smell but something like warm air smell. Thanks.Pc have 6 months.
 
It doesn't exactly smell like a burning smell but, its more of a hot hair dryer smell.  It happens when card is hot.

    Maybe time to clean out the dust.
    Heaters in the Winter can have a dusty smell when warm.
