Need help with Gaming Temp.

Ok, I play a few games in the world of Warcraft for example which does nothing to raise the temp above normal (40-45 ) but when I play Hitman 3 (online version) then it goes up to 70-75... I am not sure when I should start to worry about overheating?  I am running an AMD Ryzen  2600 processor, 36 Gigs of Ram, Radeon RX 580 GPU, using Dual Monitors and my case has 5 Box fans 120 m, 2 fans built into the GPU, and of course the fan from the stock cooler.

A buddy said I should upgrade my cooler but I am not sure.... the cooler I have to be able to upgrade (as he suggested ) is Cooler Master A71C  (supports an AM4 socket) 

So my question here is At what temp should I start to worry about when Gaming? 

Also, Should I upgrade from the stock Wraith cooler to the Cooler Master A71C?

And a final tidbit of information, I have the PC in a room with 2 10,000 BTU ACS (for Summer) and during the winter I keep the temp in the PC room no higher than 70

You opened another thread with the same exact question being asked but with a different title to the thread: https://community.amd.com/t5/processors/please-help-asap/m-p/502035#M44891

AMD Forum's rule doesn't allow someone to open more than one thread on the same exact subject at the same time.

Closing this thread since it's also posted in the Support forums; please continue discussion there: https://community.amd.com/t5/processors/please-help-asap/m-p/502035
