Holy fuark what a pain in the ass... CPU temps 100 C and tried reapplying thermal paste 4 times until I used an X pattern over muh dot pattern and it finally evenly spread and temps are cool again.
But this is strange, it seems as though this happened after it got very cold last night, perhaps my liquid cooling froze? I unplugged and replugged my liquid cooler connector and it seemed to have really turned on but sounded almost icy as opposed to the normal liquid sound I hear when my PC starts.
I know cars use refrigerant for cooling but what do PC's use? Some sort of glycol and water solution... not sure if that freezes.
My PC is my life... absolutely brutal.
Was about to drop 1.5k on another PC just to browse google
