Hi,
is it possible to damage the cpu if you mess with the bios settings?
(of course, but how can one tell?)
I tried to overclock the CPU I7 3770K, upon failing, i continuously get high temps.
So I reapplied thermal paste, but the problem remains.
I'm running stock settings so no overclock, stock fan stressing it with fur-mark CPU burner gives me temps to 105°C which is the thermal limit of the 3770.
But booting or light PC usage is possible but CPU go easy above 70°C.
Did I damage my CPU? But it still works a little bit? Any suggestions on further trouble shooting?
