[Help] F6-424 Max CPU core temperature ~100C

I have just updated my F6-424Max to TOS7.0777 and one of the cores (Core0) of my CPU is often at 100C, in fact all of the courses are higher temps than I have seen. The room hasnt changed as its set with aircon, and activity is no different to normal.

Does this mean I need to reseat the CPU with new thermal paste, its a relatively new machine.
Thanks

If the CPU core temperature was within the normal range prior to the TOS 7 upgrade, then reaching temperatures as high as 100°C after the upgrade is abnormal. Please generate and download a log report via TOS > Technical Support > Issue Report, and then email it to our technical support address (support(at)terra-master.com) so that we can analyze it.

Based on the system report you provided, the fan is currently set to automatic mode, and the CPU has been under sustained high load for a long period.
We recommend that you first try setting the fan to a fixed high speed. If the temperature still reaches 100°C, you may consider either replacing the thermal paste or slightly lowering the CPU power consumption in the BIOS.
In addition, your system RAM has been triggering OOM (Out of Memory) events, which have severely impacted system services. We suggest that you limit the RAM usage allocated to Docker containers and virtual machines.

If the apps in use before and after the upgrade are unchanged, does that not imply (regarding the OOM events) that TOS7 is less optimised and/or a greater "consumer" of RAM than TOS6. Would that be something that @TM might address?

{Given the cost of ram these days maybe @TM might provide foc ram upgrades for machines that can be upgraded.
