I've built my pc a month ago and thought I had thermal paste on a cpu pin while building. So I looked after building and didn't see anything. It's been bugging me ever since last week because I've started noticing less performance in my games like overwatch, its the only game I play consistently so I couldn't know if it's across different games or not. Here's a picture, my question is, do you think this is the reason my game isn't performing well, or are my settings too high.
