Hi, I have a i7 2670QM 2.2 ghz (lenovo Ideapad Y570)
I set the processor power to 99% so that it doesn't activate the turbo boost that i7 2670QM has.
Anyway, the issue I am having is the load of the CPU
I am using realtemp to monitor the CPU load and temperature
two days ago, I just wanted to do a test for cpu temperature, so I turned on the GPU and played BF3. Then the load of the CPU was 30~50% and that makes the CPU temperature goes up to 80's C in just few minutes. Compare to last year around this time, the load of the CPU was around 20~30%, temperature was around 70's and 80's C.
I also played Diablo 3, the load of the CPU was about 20~30%, last year was 10~20 (I think?).
I thought might be the CPU's core got damaged and might be the reason that load of CPU increased. I opened the task manager and watched in on the performance tap but I don't think it's damaged core...
Anyway.. why is the load of the CPU increased compare to last year when playing BF 3? is it because of virus?
I didn't try clean install yet and didn't reapply thermal paste since I have to disassemble the whole laptop to access the cpu and gpu of the laptop.
(I cleaned the fans and vents recently, just vents and fans)
Thanks in advance.!
