tempered glass on side gets hot when playing pc games
its the glass on the side on the computer.is this anything to worry about? i have a 600w psu specs are as follows
gtx 1080
cpu i7-7700k
is 600 watts enough to power everything? gtx 1080 is a monster and then it has to power everything else. the fan in the back that cools the cpu the air flow is also really hot

600w is way enough..

Anyway.. anything over 30c will feel warm to the touch. (to the most
If your temps are fine, you have nothing to worry about.

What are your temps, what cooler do u have and your fan setup?

Yes, your Diablotek 600W is plenty for that setup.

when i was playing hitman 2016 yesterday the gpu temp was 81c and now gpu temp is 60c. in any event, thanks for answering my question. i plan on having my friend custom build me a gaming pc soon. im just undecided at this point cause even though this ones a prebuilt it runs good so i dont know. prebuilts use low quality hardware i will never buy another one ever.

Temps are okay so far. CPU and GPU can handle temps >90c.
But you are going with a new rig. So not rly relevant anymore x)
Since it's a pre-built, you could add case fans like the be quiet pure or silent wings.
And it's possible a blower design gpu, if so, don't worry about the temps, the blower design isn't the best cooling solution.

Anyway..
Just make sure your friend knows what he's doing.
Alternative, feel free to ask for feedback if you know the parts.
