I just installed a New GPU a installed it a few weeks ago. I'm Trying to understand what Thermal Throttling is as I've never Do a Stress Test Before and still Learning even though this is my Second Build, But I'm Trying too understand all of this and I'm asking because a few nights ago while Playing COD my PC just Shut down. So I let it sit for a Bit and then rebooted and then played some COD again, it seemed to be playing fine after that so I didn't give it a second thought, then it happened again Yesterday twice, I did some Digging and it seems there are 3 likely issues and How to Solve them. 1. Possible overheating .2 Bad PSU and 3. Bad Ram. So around 3-4am I took my AIO apart to wipe off the Thermal Paste as I didn't do this when I installed the Ryzen 7 only did it on the CPU, I wiped off ALL thermal Paste both CPU and AIO installed it back together again tried some COD again for about 15mins and it seems Fine, so I tried CINEBENCH for the first time to see if I could understand these random shut offs. This is the result of that Test, so I'm wanting to understand is this a normal reading or is there something I need to change? more Air Flow? better thermal Paste? Just Want to understand so then if this happens again I'll Have a Bit more knowledge to Go on. So IS this Thermal throttling?
