I put another ram stick in it for a total of 4GB, a t9500? cpu and an ssd. I replaced the battery and charger once and it's been going strong for over ten years. #2coresftw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone else experienced this? I have an intel I5 4670K and I never use to have any issues. I am suspecting the either windows is doing this on purpose to force me to get a new CPU OR my cpu is dying. Temps have been in the 50s since watercooling the rig. I know that these temps are not to be worried about, but still for a water cooled rig, I was expecting it to be in the 40ies at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there is an issue with windows that can cause the CPU to be used by background programs. I had this issue with my gaming laptop. I'll find the link https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/how-to-fix-100-cpu-usage/ Could be worth a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
