RE: God... this sucks....
SkyDX Wrote:Anyways nothing is overclocked but as more summer it gets outside the more trouble I get..... I started Sims 3 and then watched the temps with Everest on my G19... CPU 60°C fan @ 3200 rpm, GPU 115°C fan @ almost 10000 rpm and well like said my PC sounds like a vacuum cleaner.
Dust or not, this system ran hot from the start the only thing that helped me was the fast dropping temperature in Europe after August. Since I don't like the air room heaters create my room temperature was always at 10°C if not lower which must have helped the PC to stay cool.
EDIT: Wait a sec I just realized what's wrong..... I think my CPU is perfectly fine, I just forgot my ATI HD4850 is freaking long.... so long that it also goes under my CPU.... As my GPU got hotter and hotter it also slowly grills the CPU few centimeters above it..... if my theory is right I just need to clean the Graphics card.....
CPU @60°C isn't all that bad, and shouldn't be all that loud either. I overclock on stock (yes people, it's perfectly possible) and it gets to about 60°C on hot days. On the other hand... 115°C definitely can't be good...
GPU above CPU? You have one of these mini-systems?
Try underclocking your GPU. Should bring the temps down somewhat. Would also save you power.
