Hey everyone! It seems there might be an issue with my CPU. A few days back I noticed my PC became slower and made more noise. At first I brushed it off, but now it’s becoming a problem because I can’t even launch a game without it freezing. After installing some peripheral monitoring tools, I found that my CPU was consistently over 90°C, even during heavy use. The cooler is fine, I’ve changed the case fans and applied thermal paste. But here’s the odd part—sometimes when I start the PC, everything runs smoothly, it’s quiet, and the temperature stays under 50°C. If anyone can explain why this happens only occasionally, that would be really helpful.
