Hi,
So I was compiling some C++ files (Using GCC's g++) when I heard the fan (For the first time) getting really loud, its speed got over 5000RPM (By default its 3600RPM) so I went to HWMonitor to see the CPU temperature and it was over 70C (By default its around 20C since it uses x7 multiplier), I always compile and play games, and the multiplier gets to x19 or x20 but the CPU never got that hot. Also notice that I have the last two cores (5 and 6) turned off which means I am only using 4 cores. The temps are now back to normal and I am using my computer to post this, but why did it happen all of a sudden? I am scared it would happen again and it might cause damage to the CPU or the MOBO.
Just another question, does the CPU/MOBO melt down/burn if it the CPU gets really hot? Or does the computer simply turn off (Like my old Pentium 4 did)?
Best,
