Am I worrying too much? (PC related.)

[Baldur]

Hello, and thank you for clicking the link to this thread! I'm honestly not sure if I should post this here because my question is not entirely Final Fantasy XIV related. But the game is involved, which is why I posted this here. If I posted this at the wrong place, I apologize.

I recently bought a new PC and upgraded it with Final Fantasy XIV, as well as other games, in mind. Ever since the day I brought it home, I've been paranoid(?) about taking care of it from the inside and out. As soon as the fans in my PC get louder while playing a game, I shut it [the game] down. When it comes to running Final Fantasy XIV, my PC does very well running it with adjustments here and there. FPS is nearly perfect outside of cities and camps with the occasional and small hiccups (or whatever you call them). But stuttering occurs within cities and camps. (This happened with my old computer as well.) After over an hour or so of play the fans get louder, and loading times between gameplay and cutscenes become much slower. (I assume this is because of the memory leak issue.) After this happens I shut down the game, restart my computer (if it takes a little longer to respond to my mouse) and give my computer a short break (around 30 minutes to an hour).

So here are my questions: Am I doing the right things, or am I worrying too much? If I am indeed worrying too much, than what should I do differently? And what do you do to take care of your computer?

Thank you for reading, and good luck to you in your current and future endeavors.
