Hello! Just giving you a quick update on the december poll piece! Unfortunately I potentially might have to delay it until the start of January - my PC's CPU is overheating by quite a bit (90c whilst idling) so I'm going to take it to a shop tomorrow to see what I need fixing or replacing (I assume it's the water cooler but you never know). I don't know if I'll be able to have it fixed by December so I might be unable to use my PC until January. Sorry for the inconvenience, I'll make sure to make up it next month!

Sounds like a issue with the cooler? Might be the thermal paste between the CPU and the cooler went bad?

Has the fan on the cooler been making a ton of noise? Is it a stock cooler? Or on the opposite end have you cleaned up the dust around the intakes and out takes on the case? If it's none of those its a odd one best troubleshoot would be to swap the cooler but I assume you don't got a spare on hand.

That's fine dude, I would look into getting a beefy air cooler as a replacement if I were you. These kinds of incidents are why I refuse to use water coolers.
