Re: Fried CPU
After some research and digging through my case I figured out that I had a simple airflow problem. My case takes in air from underneath and I just moved into a new apartment and had my computer on some fluffy carpet, almost completely blocking air intake. It also turns out that my CPU's normal idling temperature is around 55C and it's die temp is 85C, so it wasn't getting as hot as I thought. Those blue screens I was getting was Windows shutting off the computer to prevent the CPU from frying itself.
Just in case anyone was wondering...
Thanks for all the input.
