Hey there, I just spotted something unusual with my build. It’s heating up to over 75°C during short bursts—around 20 minutes—and drops back to about 65-70°C when usage is normal (30%-50%). What worries me is that my GPU, CPU, and power supply are all cooler than the main board by 10-20 degrees. The only recent updates were installing an RTX 2080 Super (upgraded from a 1050 Ti) and I’m not sure if this was the start or just a gradual change. Airflow looks decent, cables seem well-organized, and fans are sufficient, so I’m puzzled about the real issue. Thanks for checking in, and I’d love to hear any thoughts

That’s the idea I had, but a CPU shouldn’t always lose to the drive… I’m not using an M.2 drive; instead, I’m running two HDDs in RAID 0 and pairing it with an SSD for my operating system.
Holy crap yeah it's 8 degree's lower on this and has every temp monitoring point listed. Way more f***ing useful, I'm curious where ASC was getting that reading from then? But anyhow I'm going to do another burn test and see what happens with this tool real quick.
I believe you and BMX are correct; the software indicates a nearly 10% reduction during idle. I’ll need to conduct further tests before confirming.
