What is it about TS4 that makes a computer run so hot?

My last desktop ran super hot while playing TS4. Well, a couple of days ago I bought myself a gaming desktop. It has a GeForce GTX 2060 with 6 GB and an Intel i7 10700F, and even with that big boost in hardware, TS4 will make all of the fans crank up to high speed. Even the glass side panel is pretty warm to the touch. Why?

It's a gaming computer that isn't even a week old, and it has plenty of space/ventilation on all sides. My last desktop (non-gaming) also ran hot while playing TS4

I would return it, that is exactly what happened to me with the Predator. It was supposed to be very good but it was terrible. I then got the Alienware and had no issues, perhaps you just need a different one as well. When I googled afterwards it was actually a big problem with the Predator model I got, so perhaps google the model of your computer and see if its a known issue with it as well, I would really recommend you returning it before it gets older and warranties expire.
