Hi,
I have recently cleaned my pc and while playing games I used to get 50 - 55C playing I now get 80 - 94C. Please help!
Thanks in advance,

What GPU is that? Most new models won't start fans until GPU reaches certain temp, often around 55 C, so with temps you had before clean it may be understandable that the were not spinning. But the temps you get now should force fans to work no mater what GPU it is.
When you manually stated fans, did they keep working on their own until temp was reduced, or only for a moment?

unfortunately, they do not spin of their own accord. However, when manually starting the spin, they did. They didn't spin before the clean either.
