Hello! First thank you for taking the time to read and try to help me with this problem. My motherboard keeps overheating and then my computer freezes and I have to hold the power button in to shut it down. I can't figure out what could be causing it.
After some searching I found common reasons this may be happening and I believe I have addressed these, the steps I have taken are:
1. Reapplied my thermal paste on my CPU
2. Made sure my case was dust free and has a good supply of airflow. (The case is a lanboy air with 4 side fans, 2 on front, and 2 on back including the radiator for my water cooler)
3. Re-seated most of my hardware and visually inspected the motherboard, it seems to be ok
I can't really think of what else it could be, is it just getting old? I have been running this computer daily since 2012.
PC Hardware:
Motherboard: ASUS M5A99FX PRO
CPU: AMD FD9370FHHKWOF FX-9370 FX-Series 8-Core Black Edition
CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H80i GT
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 970
Screenshots of temps at a higher state, usually shut down happens when the Temp #1 under the 9FX Pro hits 89.0.
Thank you for your time helping me!
