So I have an I7 7700k overclocked to 4.8ghz at 1.29 vcore (auto), my PC just recently started turning off and I went to check my temps it was peaking at 100 degrees celsius on some games, it may have been like that for more than a year, still my pc just turned off twice and in the same day before I checked temps.
So to solve the high temp issue i turned the overclock from 4.8 to 4.6ghz, and lowered the voltage to 1.2, temps are much better, it wont go past 80 degrees in heavy load.
But it still turns off in the same applications, rather my pc automatically restarts now instead of turning off.
Is it possible that my CPU is failing?
There is no other odd behaviour besides restarting.
