My main computer - overheating problem solved

For last few months I had some problems with my pc that it was shutting down. I thought that maybo one temperature sensor died, but they were all working. I had cleaned my computer with an air compressor and that didn't help. I usually change thermal paste on other computers, but I never on that one.
When I took heatsink down I just saw how solid was that termal grease. After I have changed that grease I have no more problems with overheating.

@shadow444222 Hmm... Maybe you puted too much of that paste on that cpu and thermal paste is bad quality. I think the best way to remove the cpu is to push it to the side of the heatsink. If thermal paste is like glue try to use a screwdriver... BUT BE CAREFUL WITH screwdriver, beacause you can brake that cpu. Try to lift cu from heatsing on each side... Keep me updated how did you do it and if that did work! xD
