Any suggestions? My fans are running overtime when I play some games and want to check to make sure all is well.

I have GeForce experience. Will that monitor the system or will I need a download or something?

use hwmonitor to monitor temps.
run it while you do w/e and check the max temps after a gaming session or w/e.
its the summer so fans should be running a bit harder generally.

I love Nzxt CAM. Been using it for a year now. If you want more detailed info and time curves you can click advanced or expand.
Program can be used as FPS counter in-game and even overclock or down-volt if you don't wanna mess in BIOS.
You can also easily set warn notification if you reach an unsafe temperature of your choice.

I also use it on my laptop. Specially had a use for it before i did some modifications on my XPS. Like Thermal pads on MOSFET, New thermal Paste and undervolt CPU, temps was getting crazy before.
For some reason dell made RPM not controllable even in BIOS so can't read the information there on CPU.
