I had the 0020 RROD code and did the 8 penny trick, but now when I run FSD my CPU temp is fine but my GPU and memory are both showing 200+ F... and I can't find anything online explaining why my temps would read so high after the fix.

Does the penny trick mess with the sensors somehow?
Do I need to run the 360 a few times to heat/stick the electrical tape?

Or should I just go ahead and do the Hybrid method?

Just wondering your experiences with the penny and Hybrid methods and if anyone has seen a system's GPU/memory read so very hot right after the penny trick.

Eh, it was a temp fix. Going with the Hybrid method when the kits shows up.
