while the goodwill of his community towards his persona was upheld.

He probably really was one of us. To be honest, most of Reddit had no idea who tf spez was before this. Anytime he did something terrible, it would be big then disappear in a week.

Then, since he was so removed from a redditor's in the day to day, all would be well and he'd be forgotten. The local mods and reddit admins were who everyone would direct their hate to.

Well, they don't always start out as "corporations". He may have been one of them, till the glamour of profits came into the picture.

Exactly what my first thought was, but I'd just paste the whole thing in again, just for good measure.

The heat is going to exist somewhere. All the cooler does is move it from the CPU to the case, and the case fans move it to the room. A better cooler would heat up the room more, if anything. A 7700 is also nothing in comparison to a 6950XT. If you were worried about heat, the 4070 probably would have been better die to the far lower TDP.

Also, cooling depends very heavily on the ambient temperature of the room and the other fans in the case. If your room is 30°C, tough shit, that CPU is going to have relatively high temps, and spending $100 on a huge cooler isn't going to magically make it disappear. You're ignoring all the other factors of your friends case.

Honestly, fixing ventilation in your room might actually be more worthwhile for both your PC and yourself.

Buy the parts you want, but don't build up unrealistic expectations.
