Desktop CPU is overheating during games again. Figure I’ll reapply the paste & add the spare case fan to the side.

Might upgrade the cpu fan too. Maybe one of the ones that aims sideways toward the back of the case.

Went to look up the socket type & discovered that the cpu model is 10 years old :blob_dizzy_face:

I’m sure there are newer CPUs that are both faster *and* more efficient. Might be better than replacing the heatsink. But a lot more involved.
