I upgraded 3 weeks ago from i5-6400 to i7-6700 CPU's. I didn't need to upgrade bios and I put on only a small amount of thermal paste (as advised by a technician who helped me through the process).
For the last 2 weeks I've been using the desktop to play games on ultra including GTAv, Bo3, Watch dogs 1 and 2, CSGo, and XPlane 11. All these games my pc has been running smoothly on my 144hz monitor at around 60-100fps.
Today I moved down to my parents house and upon starting my PC was lagging on discord. I decided to reboot and it overheated on startup. Not done before in the last 2 weeks and the fans were just cleared of the dust.... Not sure what to do. Any responses are appreciated.
