    I have an overheating issue with my P770ZM-G using a i7-4790k. When I am playing Ark Survival Evolved, things would start acting "strange" and then my system will shut itself off. This has been happening for the last 2 or 3 months. I put ThermalGrizzly's Kryonaut on both the CPU and GPU about a year ago and hadn't had any problems until recently. I have cleared out the dust, etc on the fan and heatsinks. Didn't help. I believe it is the CPU that is overheating because the last time I had it happen, I immediately powered the system up and went into Speccy which showed the CPU at 199 and the GPU at 145.

    I am thinking about replacing the ThermalGrizzly with IC Graphite. What are your thoughts on that? I am getting tired of thermal paste going bad. I had to use the ThermalGrizzly because the IC Diamond that was on it started to have problems about 1.5 years after putting it on.
