I live in TX and it can get over 100. I used to get hot pressure points with synthetic socks. I wear thin Smartwool all the time and never have a problem anymore.
A thin wool is best all around IMO. Wicks, no pressure points and will retain some heat and dry out quickly if they get wet in the winter.
