Sudden overheat....

[C0RR0SIVE]

OK, last night my CPU temp was at about 40C load like it has been the past few months with my overclock, today at around 5:00 AM we had a massive powersurge/power outtage. Once I start my computer up i look at the temps to make sure there normal. Well i notice my CPU is now idle at 40C and loading at 58C close to 60C..... Any ideas as to what could have happened? Because this is worrying me.... A 20C raise in temps isn't nice.... especialy overnight like that....

maybe the temp monitor was wrong before when it said 40C, but maybe it was right, and its changed to be wrong now.

perhaps there was an update which made it change or something. its far fetched, i know. but nothing else really comes to mind
