Computer viruses commonly cause system overheating by consuming excessive CPU and GPU resources through unauthorised background processes. Key warning signs include unexpected system slowdowns, frequent crashes, increased fan activity, and unwanted pop-up advertisements. Malware strains computer resources by running multiple malicious processes simultaneously, leading to performance degradation and potential hardware damage. Regular antivirus scans and system monitoring tools help detect and prevent virus-related overheating issues. Understanding these indicators allows users to identify and address malware infections early.
