Hello.
Recently, my computer began to have some strange frame-drops while gaming.
Two days ago, it became worse, as it would just get stuck and nothing would respond. This happened several times, and required a hard reboot each time.
I have checked my CPU temps, which were around 60c at rest, and probably much higher on load (prime95 easily went to around 75, not even half-way the process, and i stopped it).
I have removed the stock heatsink, and replaced it with a new one. Rest temps are around 30c now, and load are around 50c, which is fine i guess...
BUT - my computer acts kinda strangely now. Whenever i boot it, the whole booting process takes like 40 times slower than it should be, and when i finally boots, my windows freezes for a long time, every couple of minutes.
I'm afraid of a possible permanent CPU damage... Any ideas?
Thanks,
David.
