I bought new CPU to improve my gaming quality, everything was fine first few days, but later it started overheating (it can hold 71 degree, I usually have at least 75 while gaming), my pc started making a sound of shortening, cracking, and after some time my pc just restarts. I've tried changing thermal paste a few times, re-fitting my cooler and it didn't help, when I try to turn my PC on after changing something, it starts working and after 1-2 sec turns off again. After like 10-20 attempts it finally turns on. With old proccessor I didn't have overheat problems.
My PC specs:
old CPU: Intel Core Dual E8600
new CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400
VGA: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 650 Ti Boost
MOBO Model: DQ45CB
Rams: 8 gb DDR2
PSU: 400W
Is it possible that the CPU or the Cooler is the problem? What else could it be?
