AMD FX-8350.
So, I decided to throw my water cooling system out, as it decided to die on me, so instead I got myself some random cheap CPU cooler, which works perfectly fine, but for some reason the CPU tops 70-80°C. Either while gaming, or rendering my videos.
Increasing the fan speed up to 100% seems to make the CPU run a little cooler, but not much.
I have tried re-reseating the CPU cooler.
I have changed the termal paste a couple of times. Did make a difference at first, but the night afterwards, it got back to the temps.
I have tried blowing every single piece of dust off, saw no difference at all, performance/Temp wise.
Opening my window seems to -5°C the temps, so around 60-65.
This makes no sense either, as I have like 5-6 fans inside this PC, and it still runs this hot.
Any ideas? As I really don't want this CPU to die on me.
