So, ive been gaming on my pc for a while. no games give me problems except very CPU intensive games (huge open world games)
When im playing such games i can play fine for about 20 minutes and then i get freezes that lead to me having to restart my computer. my gpu stays cool and my ram in FINE. But after a few crashes i decided to check inside the case and i LITERALLY couldnt touch the cpu heatsink for over 1 sec without BURNING my finger (also my mobo it to old to monitor cpu temp so i couldnt tell you the temp)
*Would also like to add that when im playing such games im getting great fps up until the freeze
Also the heatsink is an old stock spare i had sitting around
THIS IS IT ----> http://cpc.farnell.com/productimages/standard/en_GB/CS14077-40.jpg
What do you think? is it the heatsink/cpu? should i just upgrade my heatsink? might it be something else?
