After finding out diablo 4 was causing issues with gigabyte 3080ti cards, I held off on installing the game and trying it with some friends but eventually tried it anyway (I have a EVGA 3080ti FTW3). I limited its power usage to 90% just incase. While the game was installing I played two games of overwatch with friends and I experienced no issues. I launch and play 2 hours of diablo 4, game is stuttering and I just assume there are some optimization issues with the game being in beta and all. The stuttering issues weren't too bad and could be ignored. The moment I closed the game, my PC hard froze for a solid 5 minutes, I could hear my friends in discord talk no problem but they couldn't hear me.
After the freeze ended, my CPU temps have been through the roof (80-96 C) without doing anything and only having discord open. Opening a browser or anything would cause my CPU usage to increase up to 60-100%. Today I have completely cleaned out my computer and reapplied thermal paste to the CPU, thinking maybe that was the problem. At IDLE my temps are now anywhere from 45 - 60 C and when I open any program my CPU temps increase to 60 - 70 C and usage still sky rockets to 60-100% usage and things are slow to load. What should I do?
Thanks in advance, I literally have no clue what could be the issue. Tried looking online.
edit: running stock cooler, but haven't had issues with it.
