Hi everyone,
I built my first PC a month ago, with the help of an experienced friend, and everything was all good until today.
Before today, idle temps for the CPU sat at around 35c. Now for some reason, after playing a game, the CPU is overheating and the cpu fan speeds are going up and down. the idle cpu temps now ranges from 78-100 on idle, 100 if I simply browse the web.
Build:
CoolerMaster Masterliquid 240 AIO
intel i7 7700k kabylake
evga GeForce gtx 1070 ftw
ASUS ROG Maximus ix hero mobo
EVGA 650w supernova PSU
I have already tried reinstalling the AIO and cleaning/ reapplying the thermal paste. Same thing is happening. I also reinstalled windows to make sure nothing that I installed was making the CPU run weird in the background.
I don't know what else to do. Any advice is appreciated!
