I own a gigabyte B560 motherboard. The budget model costs around eighty dollars. It comes with an i5 11400f CPU and an RTX 3060 on Windows 11. Using HWinfo, I checked the temperatures and noticed they spike after about fifteen minutes of heavy workload, leading to blue screens. During a Cinebench test, all CPU temps stayed near 70 degrees. HWinfo lists thermal sensors but doesn’t label them clearly. One sensor labeled “Temperature 3” jumps to 75 and keeps rising until around 95 degrees, after which the PC crashes. I’m unsure what those six sensors do—HWinfo says they’re on the motherboard, but I’ve added more fans without improvement. If anyone knows more about these sensors, I’d really appreciate it.

Here are three possible overheating issues:
1. Sensors may be generating excessive heat.
2. Cooling systems could be failing to function properly.
3. Component wear might be causing temperature spikes.
