These temps are pretty good for a stock cooler actually! Those temperatures are absolutely safe to run at.

Yup thats totally safe, I was also using the stock cooler on my 12100F for like 1+ month before buying a better cooler and I had similar temps while gaming.
A simple sub 40 $ 4 heat pipe tower cooler droped my temps to 50-55 celsius in most games while being virtually silent so you don't even have to spend much. :)

PCH is "Platform controller hub" it's the chipset of the motherboard, if diode temp is below 80 degrees then absolutely nothing to worry about.

I know this thread is old haha but my i5 12400 with the stock cooler, the lowest temp it went was a staggering 26c. yes TWENTY SIX. The highest i've ever seen it go is like 80c 100% usage when loading minecraft:laugh:, but that's because it was summer and like 41c here so yeah. But still, 26c idle temp is fantastic. I cannot wait for the 5c outside weather, the CPU will defo go to like 15
