Hello there! I tried to change some CPU's. Both of them were kinda used for an year or so. But here comes the problems. I had a 7th generation i3 and changed it with a 7th generation i5.
The thermal paste was perfectly put. Even like this the temps are kinda hot.
40C in idle which is normal, but 80+ C in Overwatch, which is something i don't really like.
My question is: can this high temps be affected by the compatibility with the motherboard or the possibility of a bent pin? If not so, should i buy a professional CPU cooler?
I don't think the cooler is the problem tho. I mean... shouldn't the intel cooler be enough for its own CPU?
Also i can mention that I've tried to run the game with the full case opened, but I got the same results!
Thank you for helping!
