Hello,
my PC is overheating and reaching 99c in just less than 3 minutes, i'm not really sure what's the problem, i've tried re-applying the thermal paste and it's still overheating. I'm using stock cooler, should i get better one? i just can't really imagine having a bad cooler would make it go up to 99c, I'm using i7 4790k and i'm not overclocking by the way.
i actually had an accident a while ago (around 6 monhs ago) and i lost power in my house while using the pc, after the power came back my pc was overheating a bit (70c on idle) but it fixed itself in a couple weeks and it was back to normal to being 30c on idle, could that accident be related to this? could losing power actually badly damage my cpu?
on a slightly different note, i was already planning on buying a new cooler and after doing a bit of research i found out most people were reccomending the Cooler Master Hyper T4 for the 4790k, is it still good?
