Heat

Really quick one - I was just building a PC for my mate and something I've never noticed before. I put a SSD in booted into BIOS, turned the PC off, and then took the SSD out - the PC was on for maybe....5 mins? When taking the SSD out even though it hadn't been used it was warm to the touch...

Hi Guys! I have an Intel Core i7 9700k without any overclocking on a Gigabyte Z370 gaming x cooled by a Cooler Master MasterLiquid 120R. I have been experiencing high temperature values for the cpu, which is quite frightening. While rendering in Vegas pro, I'm getting around a maximum of 85...

Hello everyone and sorry for any errors in the language, new dumbass here with some possibly obvious question but i just bought a new processor, a i5-11400 with an B560M Aorus MOBO since my previous MOBO was dying and i couldn't find one to hold my old i5-4570. So, i did the deed, exchanged the...

How does heat damage a CPU/GPU overtime? What changes in functionality occur when a CPU/GPU become "old" or "worn" out? I'm not talking about thermal throttling, but if a CPU does age/has sustained high temperatures over the years, does that affect when the threshold for throttle in the future...

I was wondering if more cores will produce more heat. Will frequency also be a factor in the production of heat? A Ryzen 3 2200G and a Ryzen 5 3600 has the same TDP which is 65W, but does that mean that they'll produce the same amount of heat? If this was already posted before and was already...

A while back my PC started this trend where after playing a game for a while suddenly it would get super laggy and the FPS would drop to an unplayable level, naturally I figured it was throttling and needed some TLC cleaning- unfortunately this did not fix the issue. I decided to factory wipe...

Hello, I am new to laptops so I have no idea if this is normal, but my CPU temps sometimes range between 80 degrees to as high as 87, for 10-20 seconds on boot specifically. Afterwards it drops to 50s for a third of a minute then stays at low 40s.

Hello, I have a Ryzen 9 5950X which is getting to around 80-85 degrees with only 65% utilization whilst playing warzone. Is this something I should be worried about or could it be a fault with my cooler ? Full specs as followed, Ryzen 9 5950x CORSAIR H150i ELITE CAPELLIX 360mm Liquid CPU...

Ryzen 3600 running mid 60s Celsius while idle, 80s when gaming. Running an MSI MAG Coreliquid 240R with 2 fans, and 4 more case fans. I've tried changing bios settings, as well as removing and re-installing my CPU cooler and CPU. I built this PC less than a year ago and I'm not sure what the...

Samsung 970 evo plus nvme when computer is idle temperatures are 47 to 54-degree celsius i dont have any heatsink please help me what to do thanks in advance

Hi I've seen data suggesting that the Ryzen 5800h (laptop) cpu runs hotter, and slower, with stock ram (lenovo legion 5) than with ram with better secondary timings. Basically, by changing ram I can upgrade cpu performance and lower cpu temps by approx. 10 degrees celsius. Can anyone...

I just bought a used 1080Ti and noticed under full load it was reaching temperatures of high 70s using the normal fan curve, so I created a more aggressive one with the fans at about 75% to keep it to low 70s. That's fine but the fans are pretty loud at this level. To test the heat dissipation...

Hello! My laptop was doing fine until about two days ago when I tried to turn it on. When I press the power button the laptop starts to boot up for a couple of seconds, the screen turns on, the fan starts, and then it suddenly turns off. I need to attempt to power it on around 4 times before it...

This laptop has a 5700u processor and onboard graphics. The cooling is obviously a joke. I set the fan to "performance" mode. Shutdown at 15% (working 4 of 16 threads reasonably hard). BE WARNED. I am very unhappy. It is certainly fast up to the 15% mark. I guess I'll return the POS...

I have seen some of motherboard areas are filmed with a black layer of some material. What is the purpose of that material??????Is it for heat dissipation ????? black film on motherboard image

My Ryzen 5 3600 runs at 4.2 GHz at 1.208v. I use the stock cooler, stock thermal paste and one case fan ( average airflow with good ventilation ). It idles at 63°C. I live in india, room temp here is 45°C. When running at full loads temp goes up to 94°C. When performing stress test ~65 TDP...

Hello everyone, Recently I have started to face a very strange behavior from my CPU. My Intel 4790K shows spikes in clock speed and CPU usage every few secs. I can see that most of the background process sits at 0% usage but still my usage changes from 3-6-12-14-19 and keeps repeating this...

Will two identical processor in two diffrent laptop with different base clock (using ctdp) will produce same or different heat??? Suppose there are two processors (ex 1135g7) in two different laptop. Now laptop 1 has its base clock @2.4Ghz and laptop 2 has its base clock @1.4Ghz with intel...

I have this case " shown in pictures " and the fans on the side are pulling air from outside to inside the case , and i installed new fan in the back of the case , but i don't know which side whould be better , currently this fan pulls air from inside the case to outside Is this the right way...

Old laptop, Elitebook 745 G2 to be exact, seems to be running fine but I heard these AMD versions would overheat easily and kill themselves. I already undervolted it to be safe but still worried about these temps... What is core and package temp here? Thanks! View: https://imgur.com/a/dDwJ1xG

today i found that my GPU fans are not spinning tried to clear it from dust and stuff but still not spinning , when i touch the fans with my finger it spin for like a half spin for a second and stop and i hear a voice and the fan when i try to roll it with my finger it's not smooth it's a little...

will the dell optiplex 390 stock cooler be good and enough for me to game on it . and will the heat be normal in this case ? the main game i will be playing is PUBG Mobile On PC Emulator Gameloop + Few Other Games . SPECS : I5-2500k 3.3Ghz not overclocked . ( TURBO BOOST ACTIVATED ) 8GB x1...

Hello, friends! I want to ask this community for some piece of advice: I do NOT know what to choose from (I live in Romania, we have RON currency, but I'll convert it to EUR and USD): i9 10900KF (472 euro, 573 USD) i7 10700KF (349 euro, 423 USD) - I WANT THE KF VERSIONS BECAUSE THEY ARE CHEAPER...

I am using a laptop, this is the exact model if that helps ( https://www.msi.com/Laptop/GL73-9SC/Specification ). My CPU is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz, and its temperatures get a bit too high when gaming (90-100 degrees). I've already got recommended to renew its thermal paste...

I have a microATX motherboard with a fat GPU (2.7 slots), everything put in an ATX mid tower case (7 slots) but I'm planning to change this case to a microATX one. Question is, Will GPU heat up more because smaller clearance? (note that GPU will be put on second slot because motherboard) I saw...

I bought a Corsair RM850x PSU. I bought it for the zero rpm feature(until 40% workload), but it seems like the fans won't kick in when it should. Under heavy the PSU case gets suspiciously hot where the PSU case feels like 50-60 degrees when I put it under stresstest, but the fan wont start...

I have been struggling with my new build lately. So my new build pc would randomly shut down at idle and while gaming, i can “trigger” the shutdown by running need for speed heat. Everytime it would load the pc shuts off. I replaced my 650W with a 850W psu and still my pc would shutdown. I...

We purchased 5 laptops - Toshiba dynabook Satellite pro c50-e-101 with an i5 8250u. The problem is the constant fan noise, with it increasing and decreasing all the time. I'm on the Windows 10 welcome screen. It's asking me to create a user and to connect to wi-fi and it's already ramping up...

Hi, guys. I bought myself an Asus Rog Strix G17, and I was thinking to use a cooling pad for it. A friend of mine told me that this laptop got Intelligent Cooling and that a Cooling Pad can actually harm it. Can you give me any advice on it?

Increasing the number of cores, and increasing the clock speed both increase performance, but also increase the thermal output. IPC increases the performance, but does it also increase the heat output?

Hi friends, I just replaced my custom watercooling loop with a 360 AIO from EKWB. I had had my loop for a few years and wanted to upgrade to something a little cleaner and less complicated. After getting everything set up I started monitoring my cpu temp and fan speeds just to see how they...

Hello everyone, I thought this would be a good place to ask; I feel like my CPU hitting 80 degrees on minimal load is definitely a bad sign. It's a gaming laptop that I bought in 2017 that I've used almost daily for 3 hours minimum. I've opened it up and used compressed air cans to clean out...

My CPU has been 108 C for about 2 hours straight is this bad?

I have a Ryzen 2600 and a B450 Tomohawk, and I'm using the auto overclock feature with the stock cooler. I've got a new cooler coming today because my computer runs hot, up to around 80 degrees with some games. When I run prime 95 the temp goes even higher. I've looked online and as far as i can...

View: https://imgur.com/toH4eqz Hello to all,bought new PC and its about a month old so my question is -is it okay for the PSU to feel warm on the back side as shown in the picture idle ( as i know gaming is kinda ok to be warm ) ( the warm feeling doesnt change idle or gaming its the same...

I have bought my PC 6 months back I use it for gaming and streaming It works fine until I came across this issue Generally it works under 55 temperature while gaming it ranges from 65 to 75 Now without load when I switch on it shows 89 and then after sometime goes to 100 if I run any program it...

so usually when i play fortnite, my GPU is usually averaging 83C when my fan is 50%, and i always prefer 50% because any higher is to loud for my fan. So my main question is, is it ok to run at 83C with my GPU? (if not i can put my fan to 80 percent, but i rather not because its to loud) GPU...

Hello. I just built a new pc using my old graphics card which is a gtx950. My old pc is an i5-4460 (stock) paired with 12gb of ram and my new pc is a ryzen 5 3600 (stock) with 16gb of ram. Im getting the same results in terms of speed in rendering and exporting h264 1080p using premiere pro. I'm...

Hey guys so recently after watching a lot of videos praising the pros that come with disabling turbo boost I decided to disable it from the bios on my lovely heater (Dell g7 7590 1660ti) and well now it runs cool and nice but I’ve discovered a new issue the fans don’t spin up not unless the...
