I started a video processing job and left it to run overnight. The following morning, I found that the job took 4 hours to complete, and that my CPU (an i9-10850K) had been running very close to 100 °C that entire time.
I've since figured out what caused the overheating and have fixed it to ensure that this doesn't happen again, but I'm still worried about what damage I might have done to my CPU in those 4 hours (temp graph below).
How screwed am I? Would this have significantly shortened my i9's lifespan? And is there anything else I should be checking for as well?
