Is this knight “hanging”

After Bx pawn, if rook captures, then Bishop can fork the rook and king. Obviously this is a made up example, but within the chess community, is a piece “hanging” if it can be saved one move later?

White to move and win

Thought I was winning a pawn with rook c2, but white has an incredible resource that gives a completely winning position to white.

Best approach for pawn fences?

I’ve found myself in this position a few times and am never really sure the best approach. The engine basically wants me to throw my knights at the points of the fence and let them go. Is that really the best approach? (There may be a more formal term for this, but I don’t know it.)

Help with aio

7700 with 360 running incredibly hot. Just finished build, liquid freezer ii 360 with ryzen 7 7700x. Just on basic tasks on desktop it's running constant 80c. Bought all parts new, got delivered few days ago. The AIO came with mx-5 paste which was weird, is it possible it could be some old stock with the fault and the plate is gunked up and thus high temps? This is my first AIO build so i was cautious installing and redid it because i accidentally used wrong mounting holes first and then corrected to am5 holes, so it should be properly offset mounted now. Thermal paste application was fine the first time, just added some more in the middle for the corrected remount.
