Hello all,

I have been having several various unrelated issues today regarding my PC. I decided to transport it for spring break, but it kept randomly turning off (I now know it was caused by a loose power cable inside the PC). Then, Windows was reporting that it was missing one of the crucial System32 files. It disappeared just as strangely as it appeared. By that point, I had already made a recovery media USB, so I decided to reinstall Windows. After maybe up to 12 hours of constant work, all of these issues seem to be fixed. However, my GPU temperature while running the Heaven DX11 benchmark seems to rise very quickly. It started out at 50 degrees C (already a bit higher than average) and it quickly ramped up to 60. Should I be concerned?


Thanks,
Ian Clary
