i highly doubt it the the temperature that is the issue, modern chipsets are designed to run at much higher temperatures quite comfortably, you could even do more harm by cooling it to quickly.
The crash log will give you some insight in to what the issue is.

unfortunately the restarts and the problems came when the temperatures rose ... here there are now 38 degrees ... the decoder is hot to the touch sometimes, I don't think it's normal
cmq thanks for the reply -

cmq thanks for the replyPersonally i would not worry about temperature until it was over 90 degrees.
Assuming there is an issue with temperature, then it is likely to be the thermal paste between the chipset and cooler.
This can dry up and become ineffective over time. Simply adding a fan will not help if the thermal paste is poor.
A collection of crash logs over a few days would help.

thank you
can you tell me how to disassemble the cooling of the chipset? I have already opened it and I have an excellent thermal paste -
Well I will just add I have a dinobot 4k, it runs at 86 degrees. Has done for years.
No issues at all. And I absolutely hammer my box with all my enigma2 work i do.

It might be a bad solder somewhere, but have you checked your logs. It might be a collection of plugins that are hammering your flash memory instead.

Yes the big block in the middle..... how it comes off i am not sure, You need to be very careful without damaging the chip below.
