PC INVESTIGATION

So, I've found out what the problem likely is with my computer. Yes, my CPU naturally runs hot but I may not need to replace my AIO liquid cooler. It may be that I either need to refill it (which might be difficult) or there's likely an air bubble in it.

Using advice from one of my coworkers, I tipped my whole PC forward and upsidedown to soo if I could move said bubble. At first, after tipping, I got my CPU to cool down from idling at 50 or so degrees Celsius to 35°C. That's good, but my coworker said his idles at around 25° so I tried again. That was a bad idea, because now my CPU idles at 90°-100°C with no programs open!

As of posting this, I will have one of my friends over to come take a look at it. I'll suggest removing the whole AIO to see if we can remove the bubble, but if not, we'll install the new cooling system and hopefully that's all we'll need. My coworker said my AIO is a good one and should do the job, so if I don't need to install a whole new part I'd like to avoid doing that 😅

As you may have guessed, I won't be comfortable streaming untill I know I won't have any issues. I'll be sure to keep you all informed after today.

Thank you for your patience!
