hello some days ago my cpu was overheating but it didnt autoshuted down does anyone know where is this setting to prevent damage to my computer






p.s.sorry for my english.

It will automatically shutdown if throttling is not enough to protect it. I presume that by overheating you mean that it reached the throttle point (100°C).

the cooler didnt locked up good and it went to 85ish degreese
btw isnt there a way to make it autoshot down at 75-85 degreese?-+

You can't and there's no reason to do it. If it reaches 100°C it throttles; if that isn't enough as happens when a cooler gets dislodged (that can happen when a PC is shipped and mishandled or the CPU fan stops spinning and the CPU utilization is high) then it will shutdown. That behavior is by design.

so my cpu is safe?

Well, no.
You need to discover why it is reaching that temp.
It won't "kill it" immediately, but running at the top temp is not good for it. Nor for the performance.

He already indicated that it occurred because the cooler was not fully locked; therefore we can presume the source of issue has been addressed.

I missed that part.
Fixed.

it was performing at this temp for 2 mins before i noticed and relocated the cooler

Don't worry; it takes days to some people to notice because the system is slow or it shuts down. I had a fan failure on a server and I found out when it kept on shutting down. After replacing the cooler, it ran for several years without issues and it still does.
