Hello,
i always had a little issue with the CPU starting to throttle in certain very demanding games such as assassin's creed unity. Temperatures got up to 97°C. (CPU: i7 6700 HQ )
By disabling the full usage of the CPU (i set it at 95%), the CPU never boosts and temperatures only got to +/- 85°C MAX.
I did clean my fans with pressurised air from a can you can buy in any high-tech store and i never had trouble. Some days ago, i did clean them again. Since then, my CPU temperatures are often very high (97°C) even though the cpu is still set at 95% maximum usage. Is it possible that I blew dust from the fan, right up the CPU? Is it possible that the pressure damaged the fan
blades?
(The temperature is not always that high, but before I was never that high with a 95% max usage only. It's always Core 1)
Thank you !
Tjobbe.
