I bought a 1055T about 3 years ago and have had some heat issues with it this whole time.
For more or less its whole lifespan, it has run at 58 degrees C idle and upwards of 70 when under some sort of stress. I didn't think this was much of an issue until I recently saw that this thing's thermal limit is at 62 degrees C.
I am using the stock heatsink and removing the door to my computer only decreases temps by about 1-2 degrees.
I am thinking that the issue is in voltage. I ran HWMonitor for a while when my computer was idle and the minimum recorded VCore was 1.38V and I then ran it while having it under some stress and minimum was at 1.41V.
I am running Windows 8. I was unable to get my ASUS utility (TurboV Evo) to open and RMClock won't open either. What are my options other than BIOS undervolting?
