Pics of last years application of thermal paste. Is this a good application?
Problem is the CPU of my build (2014) is running at 100 degree C with normal use of computer. Its load is being limited and it's 34% more or less. I have a i7 4770k. My liquid cooler is from a reputable brand and has always kept the cool until last year. Last year I had the same problem and I solved it by replacing the thermal paste. So now I'm wondering if it was applied well. I just got back home from a 6 months period of travelling. It worked fine before.
