Again, there are YouTube videos to guide you through the process.Ĥ. All Intel CPUs are overvolted by default, and you can decrease the heat output of your CPU by undervolting, making sure your CPU is only using just the right amount of voltage to get the job done. This is pretty clever way of getting the same performance out of your CPU using slightly less power. You need a high-durability thermal compound like Arctic MX-4 or MX-5, and that will probably solve your overheating problems.ģ. When your CPU operates at such high temperatures (80-100C), the thermal paste can dry out in as little as 6 months.
This one's a bit involved, and you'll want to watch a Youtube video before you do it. This is not an ideal solution, but if nothing else will work, it will help keep your CPU at it's base clock freq instead of throttling way down.Ģ.
You can go into BIOS and disable Turbo Boost.
