Hello, I've got a problem with my PC, rather with my CPU.
Scine over a half year, my CPU goes up to 100°C when playing (even older) games like NFS Underground, Blur, or patically even flash games (various ones from websites).
My normal temps (internet normal, youtube, mail, etc.) are from 35-50 °C (coretemp) on both cores.
My CPU's an AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
The exact happenings:
I start the game, the temps go up to 50~60°C.
A minute in the game, keeps up to 70°C.
A few other minutes later, it goes up to 100°C.
After a while (max a minute) on 100°C+, the PC shuts itself down.
Or if I close it when it gets around 100°C, it keeps around 90°C for 10s, then goes back to normal.
I really wonder what could be the cause, I opened the PC up, cleaned the dust from the Cooler, etc.
I'd really like to know why it is doing that, and what I can do to help it.
Thanks~
