I opened the hardware monitor software for a while and everything seems fine. The GPU and CPU temperatures are normal, but the RAM temps are extremely high. The maximum reported temperatures are around 255°C or 491°F. That’s unusual—did I miss something? It looks like a possible issue, though I’m not sure if it’s a glitch. If you’re concerned, it might be worth checking your cooling setup.

It’s probably obvious if you can’t reach the RAM for a second—it’s clearly too warm.

Which hardware monitor are you employing? If it's HWMonitor, be aware its readings aren't trustworthy and shouldn't be relied upon. Consider using HWinfo64 for accurate hardware information.

Computers hold data in bytes, with each byte containing 8 bits that can represent values from 0 to 255. This system allows for a wide range of numbers, including negative values. The sensor may fail or send incorrect readings if it's misplaced or damaged. High temperatures can affect components, causing them to fail. Lead-free solder melts at a high temperature, which could damage circuits if exposed to such conditions. In short, a "glitch" often occurs due to hardware or software issues.

I thought it would melt at those temperatures. Then I decided to ask someone with more experience. You seem to know a lot more than that. The answer was unclear at first, but after rereading it I got it. Thanks.

Placing the PC inside the fridge can help lower the temperature. I'll start with that.

Actually, the melting point of most plastics is around 380 degrees Fahrenheit... your chips aren't burning, so that seems like a misunderstanding.
