Did I kill my CPU?

Johannes Kindermann · Aug 6, 2014

So I've just started up my new build PC (i5 4690K with stock cooler) and i accidentally didn't notice that the stock cooler was stuck. I was in the bios and suddenly saw the temperature getting close to 90° Celcius. I shut down the system immedeatly. Did that kill my CPU?

No, pretty sure you didn't, they are good at taking care of themselves these days, I'm sure it's fine.

FoxVoxDK :

What do you mean by "they are good at taking care of themselves"?

no the cpu will not be damaged like that if it reaches 105 c then it will automatically send a danger signal to the motherboard and the pc will shutdown automatically for preventing further damage ...

I did the exact same thing with my 4670k and it was perfectly fine.
