Hello,
I've recently noticed that when I watch Twitch streams my cpu frequency spikes and stays almost maxed out. This seems to occur in Skype as well when I'm loading messages but not in most programs. I thought it might be flash related but videos on Youtube give me no problems and everything is generally fine.
While the cpu frequency is locked so high the temperature rises exponentially until eventually the pc crashes. The memory being used also seems to continuously rise.
This is depicted by these two screenshots.
Before Stream open
After Stream open
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
System specs: FX 8320, Asrock 970 Extreme4, 4gb Corsair Vengeance, Corsair CX500M, Stock heatsink, no OC.
