Hi! I just built a new computer, currently using the stock cooler and waiting for the new cooler to come in the mail any day. I regularly monitor the cores of the cpu to make sure they do not overheat, they usually idle around 30's C, and under load (watching twitch, playing a non-cpu intensive game, etc.) they are around mid 40's C sometimes a core reaching 50 C. While i was watching netflix the computer and mouse started to lag, I immediately checked the cores and they spiked to around the mid 50's C and low 60's C. After continued monitoring some cores shot to around or on 70 C and immediately decided to press the power button, seeing from the continued heavy lag that the cpu wasn't getting cooled efficiently.
My question is did i damage my cpu? I know that any temp. that to goes up to 90 C can possibly damage a cpu, and u usually want it to stay below 70. I did not hear, nor smell anything out of the ordinary and case air seemed to be cool on the inside. I might be overreacting on this but i never had this happen before and wanted to make sure. Thank you for reading.
