Is my CPU running too hot?
I have an Intel NUC. Recently, shortly after I started watching video in Firefox, the computer shut down suddenly. I suspected that it was thermal overload, so the next time I started my computer I looked at the CPU temps using Open Hardware Monitor. They range from 60C to 95C depending on CPU load. (Around 70% CPU load was 95C). That seems hot to me. Is that correct?
What can be done to correct this, if so? Perhaps my case has gotten dusty? Perhaps I could replace the CPU fan?
