awww my CPU is getting up to 94°F that’s really scary 😨 apparently anything above 90° means you need to immediately change something. I already have a massive CPU cooler though so I don’t know what the problem is? maybe I used too little, or too much thermal paste?

I’m going to open up my case and make sure that the two CPU cooler fans are pointed the right way but I’m like 95% sure that they are

@hellpie wow holy shit that is terrifying. does that mean the 7000 and 9000 series wear out faster than other CPUs?

I just went into my BIOS and gave the CPU fan a more aggressive curve and I’m hoping that will help, but it’s kinda reassuring to hear that this is supposed to happen - it’s not something that I did wrong

@hellpie that is fucking wild. I’ve never heard of any component intentionally getting so hot that it throttles itself like that. but very good to know - thank you
