Hi guys,
I'll try to make this simple:
Here are my specs.
- Intel Core i5 3330 3.00GHz (stock cooler)
- MSI Nvidia GTX 750 TI Twin Frozr 2GB OC
- Kingston 4GB DDR3 1600MHz HyperX - 2x
- WD 1TB Blue Desktop Drive
- WD 500GB Blue Desktop Drive
- Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H Motherboard
Basically I had someone have a look at my PC as I had an issue with the motherboard and replaced it, when replacing thermal paste he forgot to take the old one off. I realised this when I checked temps and it was hitting the 100s, this was about 3/4 months ago now. I had cleaned and replaced the paste, thus it was fine temps wise.. until now.
Now its hitting the 100s again, I tried replacing the paste in case it helped to no help, I know I have a stock cooler which is usually poop. But I don't understand how the CPU is getting this hot and wasn't before now. The airflow is also fine as I replaced the case with a (Corsair CC-9011077-WW Carbide Series 100R Silent Mid-Tower ATX Computer Case) so air flow is okay.
Anyone have any ideas that would help? it randomly started yesterday when playing Rainbow Six Siege, and I kinda want to fix it ASAP.
Thanks
