Weren't you measuring temps approaching 90 degrees C?


No I felt the hose, then restarted and saw the 88 degree temp for the first time after it wouldn't boot up due to overheating and sent me to the BIOS menu where I saw the CPU temp.

I've noticed performance stutter during long sessions in The Witcher lately, but haven't thought much of it and everything seemed to be fine otherwise. It's a good thing I decided to restart otherwise I would have gone on not monitoring the temp. Wouldn't have even known there was a problem until it caused a reboot or something.

Got it. Doesn't seem all that surprising in hindsight.

I'd watch it at rest for a little while longer - maybe monitor before and after a brief session of the game in question and just see if that's resulting in a big spike. If not - maybe there was just a glitch that's resolving.
