Hey guys.
I have a problem. I was moving the mobo and when I was loosening a screw, my clumsy hands hit a small component and tear it off.
Here's a photo:
I think that area is from the audio part, but still unsure. As a side note, I did move the mobo recently A LOT and my 4 fan 1 kg radiator was kind of pulling on the CPU cooler part.
I didn't get to test the sound, because the CPU is heating 1 deg/sec ( not kidding ). It reached 100 degs and turned it off instantly. I can't even stay in BIOS for too long because it goes to 80+ fast.
All of these in idle.
So either that's a temperature sensor component and it shows bad temp or I moved the cooler SO hard, the thermal paste is messed up.
I will change the paste these days, but I want to ask your opinion.
A CPU without paste( I should have some still) and a cooler don't transfer heat at all? It's freaking idle...
Now, I'm also considering I broke the motherboard and I need to buy new gear.
Give me your input please.
- i7 6700k + z170
- i7 5820k + x99
- some Kaby X CPU and mobo? i5 7640x (5.2 Ghz looks nice) or cheapest i7
I don't do heavy stuff, just gaming. I want to upgrade to a 4790k on my current mobo, if it's not damaged. I know the 5820k is overkill, but the price difference from 6700k is like 50E, so manageable.
Thank you for the help.
Regards.
