My budget system overheats while encoding videos when left on default BIOS settings.
I've looked in HWmonitor, voltage seem to be 1.35 idle, 1.275 under load, but still, within 5 minutes
it's approaching 80 degrees
When I modify the BIOS to manual CPU voltage of 1.275 I get 1.265 at idle, 1.20 under load and the
temps max out at about 65 which is usable
I thought that with the BIOS defaults, APM would be active so this wouldn't happen. If it reaches 80 degrees
the PC just shuts down, no warning, no throttling I can see.
Is this a sign the motherboard is going bad (ASrock 960gc-gs)
