So, long story short, in the past two days, my CPU gets REALLY hot (like 60°C) and since it's an FX6350 with stock cooler, the cooler goes full speed and is REALLY loud (like 65-75dB). However, thing is that even if it runs for a hour or so in that condition, the back plate doesn't get warm even a bit, which it should do, so I think the internal thermometer is broken. If I push the CPU to even 25% usage, the motherboard's thermometer says it's at like 59-66°C, which makes no sense, as before this started I could have it at full load for HOURS and it wouldn't go above ~52°C. I often have my PC encoding/processing stuff or I'm playing games and it's really annoying to have such an issue!
I haven't changed any settings in the BIOS (be it for power management or fans), haven't done any modifications to the hardware and the room's temperature is pretty much the same it was, so I really don't know what could be causing the issue here:/ Anyone has any ideas on what I could do to fix this problem?
