Re: I changed my mobo and now CPU overheats
Did you replace that processor or just put it in the new mobo? Are you certain that mobo supports that processor? Yes you should apply new thermal paint to it, and make sure the heatsink is solidly seated on the processor.
Does the system shut down after running for a few minutes? That's the primary symptom of cpu overheating.
