Hello.
Recently I have been having issues with my CPU overheating. Just idling right now my BIOS reads that it is at 146F/58C. When gaming it reaches upwards of 160F. Occasionally it will restart itself but not too often.
Looking around in my BIOS I noticed that my CPU fan stays at a constant RPM of about 2020, well below its limits, whether it’s overheating or not (I get warning at about 160F).
I have been messing around with computers for a while, but really I don’t know what I’m doing. I have tried to search within my BIOS to attempt to boost my fan speed but had no luck. I found an option to set the CPU fan to “Turbo” however it stayed the same speed.
I don’t even know if increasing fan speed would be that much help, or if there is something else I could do to help bring down the temperature.
Any advice on increasing fan speed/other fixes would be appreciated.
