Intel i7 860 CPU
EVGA GTX580 superclocked GPU
Corsair HX1050 PSU
12 gigs of ram
Need any more info, I'll try to find it.
So yesterday everything was fine. Acceptable temps no higher than 40 c idle. All of a sudden my games got very very laggy, and my sound was bugging out. Today I got fed up with it and checked HWMonitor to see that my CPU temps are 99c across the board. On a reboot they start at around 66-68 and then slowly climb over the course of an hour or two to 99.
I got this PC prebuilt from ibuypower a few years ago, and I can't find it anymore to show you. I changed out the PSU, the GPU, and the ram all due to them being generally crap and/or faulty, and that's the extent of my tinkering. I haven't touched the CPU ever at all.
What do I do? And please make it noob-friendly.
