My i7-4770k Intel CPU usually sits around 88 degrees celsius while gaming and 65 idle. im pretty sure it was not as hot before, but i recently decided to close the side door on my computer.
I was often prompted with American Megatrends cpu overtemperature error whenever i restart my computer
My specs are:
-i7-4770k Intel CPU
-Z87-Deluxe/Quad Asus Motherboard
-Corsair CX750M power source
--A front fan, back fan, powersource fan, and cpu fan: (the cpu fan is from intel)
-----According to Asus AISuite:
--------------------CPU: ~~2000rpm
--------------------Front: ~~1000rpm
--------------------Back: ~~1950rpm
I am not quite sure what seems to be the problem, i read about thermal paste needing to be put in, but i also discovered that Intel heatsinks come with thermal paste already on them. I found out that the paste needs to be changed once in a while too, but i just built my computer in 2013, so would that be the problem?
Anyways thanks for reading this and any input would be excellent.
