My new computer's CPU got to 89c during a COD Modern Warfare II session. Is that bad? Do I need a better CPU cooler??

Possibly, what's your chipset and what cooler are you using?

Haven't a clue myself, hopefully a computer savvy person sees your post!

I consider myself computer savvy, but this new rig I just bought apparently heats up quite a bit. The processor can technically reach 100c before you have issues, but you could boil water at that temp. lol

Yeah, have to be careful. It's technically not overheating, but if you're running a stock cooler on a high end chip (particularly Intel chips), you might want to invest in something better. Whether it's an AIO or a new air cooler, you'd get better performance with a better cooler

I'm not sure on the chipset. Maybe a Z690 (Intel)? It's an HP pre-built gaming rig. The cooler is apparently NOT stock, and I've only had issues with COD. Nothing bad happened, it just got pretty hot.

I'm definitely going to look for a better CPU cooler. 89c is pretty high. The graphics is an Nvidia RTX 3070.....

It's a 16 core Intel i9 12th Gen 12900.

Yeah, I'd look for a Noctua or, if you're feeling adventurous, a Corsair H60 or so AIO.

I'm okay. Be more happy once I get rid of this blastard asthma cough. The doctor gave me some steroid tablets yesterday so hope that helps.
I've had it for about three weeks and it's not only annoying me but my family gives me dirty evil looks. lol

It started after getting a flu like thing and I only had that for a couple days but this is the aftermath of that. Having covid twice last year plus the issues I had with my lungs when I was a baby doesn't help.

I hope you get well soon. It's bad that when you get any kind of cough people are like...."do you have covid?"
