I was using a 5 year old Biostar Motherboard, and it got damaged in a blackout last month.
I bought a new Asrock motherboard.
Processor is AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 1.8 ghz.
While using the Biostar motherboard, processor temperature was 35-39 Celsius. Now with the new motherboard , it is 45 - 58 degree Celsius!
Heatsink is not heating even while playing games for an hour!
I didn't installed the processor, the service technician did it. Now I just found that he didn't apply new thermal paste.
The old thermal paste is still on the heat sink, and it is not as a paste anymore....
My question is, if I clean the processor, heatsink and apply new thermal paste, is it gonna decrease the temperature of my processor?
Is it safe to run this processor in 55 degree Celsius?
Heatsink fan rpm will be 3000 - 3900.
It is a stock amd heatsink and fan.
No overcloacking
