CPU Temperature

[Shubi]

Hey i just came to know that my cpu is having some serious problem. My pc keeps shutting down unexpectedly many times. then i checked my cpu temp and that was 90-110^o C idle. What should i do if  anyone is having any solution share it with me. Thanks

Look at the cooler.

Is the fan even spinning?

 

If you can get someone to remount your cooler with new thermal compound,

or replace it if the fan doesn't spin.

CPU cooler is at fault, possibly installed incorrectly, or if it's an AIO then it's also possible that the pump is dead

Yesterday I opened that cpu fan and i found that the thermal paste is dried and it was like hard putty.  What should i do .

if it's at that temp on idle then it's either a dead pump in the case of it being an AIO or no thermal compound. idle temps, even on a bad mount, aren't THAT high unless it's not making contact at all. 50-60c idle yeah but 90-110 is well in the territory of no heat dissipation at all.

Has the thermal paste even been replaced in the last couple of years?

 

Otherwise you might need either alcohol swabs (for easiest cleaning) or a wet tissue paper and a lot of patience to clean the dried up stuff off the heatsink & CPU then reapply a new layer of thermal paste.

Replace it. Clean it off with alcohol and apply some new thermal paste. Don't put too much in or it will make a mess - the drop should be about as large as 2 grains of rice

clean it off the CPU and cooler with rubbing alcohol and replay a grain sized amount of new thermal paste to CPU
