I have installed new components along with a fresh installation of W10 and everything is running fine, all except this small problem. Over the last couple of days I have been installing my games across various platforms such as Steam, UBI, Origin etc. and my cpu seems to stay under load even after the installation of the games.
I'll download a handful of games during the night and when I wake up the cpu is still under a decent load (even though the installations have completed) and the temps are in the 70's and the fan is very audible.
CPU is a 10400f and it's cooling solution is the stock fan at this time.
It's only after I close down Steam or Origin or whatever app I was using to download and install the games does the processor return to idle. Stating the obvious, my cpu was running for an untold number of hours under load with not large tasks being performed.
How concerned should I be, and is there anything I can do to remedy this problem?
