Very similar to what my system was showing earlier today. 7700 wouldn't go higher than 72°C. GPU at 69°C.

As for not being concerned that it's sitting at 90+ I certainly would be. It shouldn't be hitting that temp, continuous high temps will likely kill the CPU quicker. You also said idle is around 60°C that's really not normal. Idle should be half that 40 at most.

Definitely get the builder to check it. Chances are heat sink is either mounted incorrectly or not tight enough and possibly not enough thermal paste. I really wouldn't just leave it. Could even be as simple as the AIO not having the fans set to the right curve. Mine runs 100% no matter what and it's still silent. The case fans (3 at front and 1 one rear) only ramp up under load to increase airflow through the case.
