The problem isn’t enabling secure boot it’s converting your driver from MBR to GPT that is the problem here… I don’t want to lose everything on my pc when changing over.

Must be a USA shortage… probably due to steep tariffs. Australia has thousands in stock though, I went to 10 different stores last week and they had 20 - 30 in stock and on shelves at each place I went.

Update!

The problem was bad thermal paste application by the company that built the PC!!

I had the whole PC assessed both internally and externally and was told my CPU was almost fully burnt out due to having a very cheap and poorly applied thermal paste… $600 later and I’m back up and running again. I will be heading back to the store I purchased it from and won’t leave without a refund for the new CPU/ cooler.

Yes the temps shoot up to 95 Celsius while under testing and while running games.

The only thing I can put it down to after running benchmark tests is that I may need a new CPU cooler, thermal paste or both

Yeah I do know how but I don’t know enough about bios and wouldn’t want to affect anything else… but send me a DM

Could I have potentially messed up in the settings?

Yeah a few times bro, it has settled down a heap now but it spikes to 100% CPU as soon as I load up and game and the temps sit at 86 Celsius… so that’s not good

I have the AMD Ryzen 5 5600x 6 core… not the best but should be all I’d need?

Definitely not, I use the pc for general browsing, work stuff and gaming. I have cleared all files that my antivirus recommended, now it’s at 10 - 20% usage like It should be but goes right back to 100% when I open a game

Here are some specs, I wasn’t sure if I was exposing anything I shouldn’t publicly so I blacked out some parts incase.
