Episode 69: CPU and RAM Failures — Overheating, Freezes, Crashes

When systems freeze, crash, or reboot unexpectedly, the underlying issue often traces back to either the CPU or RAM. This episode explores the symptoms and diagnostics associated with overheating processors, including improper heatsink installation, dried thermal paste, and failed fans. You’ll also learn how BIOS settings like thermal shutdown thresholds and clock multipliers affect CPU stability.Next, we turn to RAM issues, such as failed modules, mismatched speeds, or slot incompatibilities. We explain how to test memory with built-in tools and third-party utilities, and how to resolve boot errors or system instability related to RAM. These are critical topics for both the exam and real-world troubleshooting, and this episode ensures you’re equipped to handle both. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
