- userbinator 8y agoAccording to the Intel link in the article the max Tjunction is 100C so Windows is pushing it closer to the max. I'm not too sure about now (especially in this age of forced obolescence), but it used to be that Intel CPUs would automatically throttle down if they started overheating, with no software required, and AMDs would just let it burn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSGcnRanYMM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSGcnRanYMM
