Hey guys
I have a i5 4440 processor and at idle it reads 50ish. When i play games at 1080p the game starts with fine fps.....moslty at 55 to 60 fps and then the fps drops to 25 to. 45 regardless of the game settings and the temp goes to 95
Is it temp related issue or might be something else ?
And those temp aint fine, are they ?

i just noticed i have a different user on my phone when i posted this, lol.
anyways....i applied a thermal paste and holly molly it works like a charm. since i got my new gtx 1060 i was very disappointed as i was expecting MUCH more and i thought im gonna change my whole setup but i never thought my cpu temp is the real issue here.
i average smooth 60 fps now on GTA 5 with everything set to very high and my cpu temp max reads 63. thanks man.
