On 8.1 my CPU stayed under 65 during games and under 75 when rendering videos, and the GPU never exceeded 65. After switching to Windows 10, the GPU could reach up to 72 during games and 77 for rendering. These temperatures seem acceptable. Has anyone else experienced this change with Windows 10? Also, I haven't overclocked my CPU or GPU.

They're actually operating a bit cooler—around 5-7°C during load and 1-2°C when idle.

The system is operating normally. Have the drivers been updated?

The CPU and GPU temperatures were normal under Windows 10, while the monitor ran hotter and appeared sharper.

Really, you shouldn't be pointing the finger at the operating system for the monitor overheating...

It seems the system hasn't loaded the necessary drivers.

It was me. Once Win10 installed and the monitor displayed all four sides, it felt unusually warm and stayed hot until I reinstalled Windows 7. With Win7 and 8, only a couple of sides warmed up, not getting hot at all.

I recently added the free upgrade. To be truthful, I’m not very familiar with PCs except for my gaming PC used for CS:GO. How can I upgrade the drivers?

I don't have a GPU. My system runs on a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system, but I don't have direct access to hardware details.

It could be that the system is dusty and hasn't been tested for a while. When you ran it recently, the results didn't align with older tests that were possibly six months old.
