Sorry for the late response. If anyone is having the same problem I just installed MSI afterburner and created a custom fan cure. Everything is working perfectly now. Thanks for your help.

I have recently built a computer and i haven't really overly stressed the graphics card until now. It is an XFX Radeon R9 380 2gb with two fans. I just tested it a little and it got a reading of 95 degrees Celsius on speccy but the fans were spinning for only about a second and then they would...

I think I have fixed it, thanks for the help. I'm going to run some tests and just monitor it for a while. If it breaks down again I will get some new thermal paste and try to find another cooler.

I've opened it up and it has definitely unseated but I have no idea how to fix it. I have no idea who designed this. What is wrong with screws?

Maybe 6 hours probably a little longer. I might ask my local computer store is they sell paste or coolers. Do all aftermarket coolers require a frame under the board? I'd rather not have to re build

Will new thermal paste be necessary? I don't know where I can get some quickly and I can't keep using my phone like this. The cooler had these weird things that you had to push down and twist. I stupidly thought they were screws and just tried screwing them in without pushing before realising...

It's the stock cooler. That's what I was thinking I may have messed up the installation. I put it on removed it then put it back. It's definitely touching but maybe not enough?

I just finished building my new pc everything seems to be working alright except for the fact that my Intel core i5 4460 was measured to be running at 80 degrees Celsius by the bios which is used ridiculous and a little frightening. I admit my cable management skills are appalling. All of my...

This is the build I am considering, I live in Australia. What do you guys think? My primary concern is whether the 550W will cut it (surely it should)? Also are there any incompatabilities here I should be aware of? Also I was going to go for the G.skills ripjaws ram but this is $10 cheaper...

I live in Australia and I cannot seem to find a 3gb card anywhere they seem rare as is. My monitor has a resolution of 1360x768 @ 60hz and is actually a tv I think it is 40 inches or something but I don't really know. Medium sized lcd.
