It seems your setup could use some ventilation. The new GPU might be generating more heat than before, so check if the system stays stable without the side panel.

Yes, but even with the panel on, after a thorough cleaning the temperature stays steady at around 30°C when idle and about 40°C while using Mozilla. If you don’t launch any games, everything works smoothly. However, once you start playing after 10 minutes, it quickly rises to approximately 80°C—it’s quite unusual.

Consider testing without the side panel active—it could function if the device needs more airflow, according to freeagent. Alternatively, try running it without the back panel on the rear side panel that covers the motherboard's back.

Despite turning off the panel, the temperature continued to increase steadily, reaching roughly 80°C within ten minutes.

Hey there, I see you're experiencing the same problems with your motherboard. It sounds like the stock cooler isn't doing enough to keep things cool, which is leading to overheating and shutdowns. That's definitely a common issue if you're using the original setup.

Consider employing a fan and directing it toward the tiny heatsink beneath your CPU cooler.

I haven't experienced such extreme cold during idle before. The cable setup was just updated, but gaming remains too warm.

You've placed a fresh fan intended for installation directly beside the CPU cooler (on the panel). I'm uncertain about the best mounting method, but I'm confident the new thermal paste will resolve the issue.

Use a small USB fan or similar device and direct it at the chipset—it really made a difference. I faced overheating problems with my 6300 and GTX 1050.

I don't possess this; I'll just wait for the next update and trust it will resolve. Thanks to all of you!
