Title says it all.
Brand new computer.
ASRock A320M DGS
AMD AM4 A10-9700 cpu
Runs abit (kinda hot) then stops. CPU shuts down...cannot wake. Have to power off and restart.
I noticed there are 4 grey square things near the CPU that get Terribly hot....like 95C measured with Laser Thermometer. They burn my finger if I touch them. This seems unusual.
I can't imagine any component lasting at those temps.
You can see the 4 gray squares about 2 inches to the left of the CPU slot at about the 10 o'clock position, right next to 4 silver capacitors. They look to be about 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch.
What causes them to run so hot? Wish I knew what they were.
I've initiated contact with the vendor about a return. Very disappointed.
