I7 3.4ghz CPU Keeps overheating
cpu temp is going up to about 94C when using the computer for minecraft, it used to be about 40c max, but now its idelling about 40C atm
I Just replaced the thermal paste again today hoping it would fix the thing, since it did the last time for awhile,
STOCK FAN COOLER
the CPU is a i7 2600k 1155 socket, I don't bother overclocking since its more than enough, but thing does overclock itself from stock, to about 3.8ghz
Mother board is a Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3
Graphics Card is a Asus GTX560 TI
Ram is two 4gb sicks of kingston HyperX DDR3 1600 CL9 240 pin
I've got windows on a 250gb hdd, and my programs on a 500gb hdd,
got a 650watt psu
Just started playing minecraft again when the temp got down to 30, its its steadyly been climbing from 30 to 40 to 50 to now about 66.
Any ideas what is the problem and how to solve it?
