Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Heat Sink. A heat sink is a term for a component that disperses heat from another object. In computers, a heat sink attaches to a chip (like a CPU) and prevents it from overheating by transferring its heat to a fluid medium such as air or liquid.
Detailed explanation-2: -Make sure the heat sink is properly mounted and has thermal paste. Check the CPU fan power. System lockups and restarts can be caused by several problems, including an overheated processor.
Detailed explanation-3: -A heat sink and fan is often used in modern computer systems to keep the processor cool. Without it, the processor could easily overheat and become damaged.
