Users are complaining about high CPU temps on Windows 10 version 1607

High CPU temperatures constitute a serious issue as they can damage your computer in time. You should fix this issue as quickly as possible to avoid potential consequences to your system. Before performing any troubleshooting, first check your CPU fan and clean it because high CPU temperature issues are often triggered by specks of dust caught there.

Anyone noticing hotter computer temps since updating to the Anniversary update? I was running in the 30/40’s according to Core temp prior and now I am in the 50’s. I also noticed higher temps when I was a beta tester for 10 but never figured out what caused them. Any ideas?
