I've probably answered my own question, but want to verify I'm on the right track before spending money and finding out I'm wrong!
I've been running this computer for a year and a half or so with no problems. Lately my computer has been shutting down on its own (not restarting). I thought it was random, but realized that it's happening when the computer is "working (i.e. son playing minecraft or when I'm converting a video).
I downloaded speccy. CPU is currently running around 20 degrees celsius. When I began converting a video again, the CPU temp steadily increased to around 70 degrees ceslsius before I shut the program down. The temp immediately began dropping.
I have an AMD FX-4100 with the manufacturers fan that came along with the CPU. Do I need to buy a new fan for it? Which ones do you recommend when I'm on a budget?
Thanks!!!!!!!
