I'm getting fed up with my computer lately. If I try to play any game, no matter what the resolution, it will go black after a couple of minutes. At first I thought it was the CPU. I did some independent testing, and came to conclude that my GPU was bad. I was wrong. I don't even know what's wrong anymore. Which is why I'm coming to you guys! I personally think it's a CPU overheat. I have a widget that shows CPU performance. CPU is represented by a circle with grey and white shades within the circle. The more grey showing, the cooler the CPU. Usually, the white would only shade in about 1/32 of the circle. Today, before I started a game, the white area was half shaded in, at only 2% usage. That strikes me as very odd, and it leads me to think that my CPU is overheating. What should I do to further test my problem? Would you recommend extra fans?
Any feedback would be great! Thanks!
