Hello people hope you are having a blessed day, today I built a new PC for my little brother, It is a budget pc of my old parts combined. The specs are;
i5 2400 3.1ghz (motherboard says its running at 98C, should've melted by now lol)
R9 270x (one broken fan but runs good at 37C idle)
4GB of Ram
128GB SSD
1TB HDD
Every part is very good, in working condition as I had tested it before. I have new drivers and everything. Can anyone help, my gpu clock speed is between 300 mhz to 500mhz is that the problem?

Stock cooler should still be ok, shouldn't get that hot. How much paste did you put?

Feel the heatsink, it should feel quite warm to almost untouchable. If its cool something is not right there.

What frequency is the cpu running at with those temps?

I prefer realtemp as it has temps obviously but cpu speed in real time in one small window.

Which os?

4GB ram is quite low. Need atleast 8GB and better if it's 2x 4GB for dual channel.

Double check CPU temps with realtemp under load. A CPU wont melt at 100c but it will throttle to very low speeds to protect itself.

As for your GPU, are those speeds under load?

GPU has one pin broken from the fan I meant, not the whole fan, and while running nothing the GPU runs at around 35-38C

CPU- Mobo BIOS says 95C, And I checked with SPeccy and CPUID Monitor and it says betweeen 88C-98C, I just replaced the thermal paste and got a stock cooler, everything seems to be tight.
Any help is appreciated.
