A processor may reduce its operating speed when temperatures become too high. This can cause slow performance, stuttering, or system shutdowns. The underlying cooling problem should be diagnosed rather than assuming the CPU itself has failed.
A faulty PSU can cause instability and, in some circumstances, damage connected components. If a computer repeatedly loses power or shows signs of electrical failure, disconnect it safely and arrange an appropriate inspection.
Diagnosis may include inspecting power connections, checking output voltages with suitable equipment, and testing with compatible components or a suitable load tester. The exact procedure depends on the PSU and computer configuration.
It can help when the existing thermal interface is degraded or incorrectly applied. However, overheating may also result from blocked airflow, a failed fan, an improperly mounted cooler, or other cooling problems.
