Erm, no. Valheim is supposed to be a game, not a test to see how powerful your computer is.

Except valheim does not need a powerful computer. If valheim is causing issues for your temps and faulting hardware; the issue is with the user.

Fans not venting properly: blocked by dust/hair or other obstruction, installed facing the wrong way disrupting airflow.
Thermal paste: low quality paste, not enough paste, very old thermal paste that has degraded
Faulty hardware / marketed as higher specs than what it really is or poor installation of hardware

If running Valheim is the equivalent of running a stress test for your machine, your machine is too far below spec to run it.
