Room for Improvement

One of your components is running above average. Targeted improvements could help:

  • Focus on the hotter component — check its thermal paste and cooler contact
  • Improve case airflow with better fan placement or additional fans
  • Your other component is running fine — the fix is likely targeted, not a full overhaul
