After recently performing a clean install of windows, i reinstalled corsair link to see that ireaching 50 degrees in idle what should i do :fou:
 


Dumb question but you mean Celsius right? 😀 What CPU? Sounds like you need to redo the thermal paste.
 


Yes celsius and i dont think redoing thermal paste should be needed since the last time i did was probably 4 months ago using Arctic silver 5
 


Did it start this just now or is it always doing this? Try checking the temps in the bios?
 


Just recently
 


Just for kicks and giggles try redoing the thermal paste and cleaning the cpu off. It is a cheap option and it will rule out cpu grease.
