Hello Guys, in the Bios config i have this option of "cool n' Quiet" enabled and i don't understand yet what is the exactly job of that option. I have heatings problems with my procesor and i'm thinking if i disable Cool n' Quiet may improove in the processor fan...
If i disable Cool n Quiet can i have best cooling from the Processor fan? Or would be worts?
Please, help me with this doubt. All comments are welcome, bye.
 
Solution
Disabling Cool'n'Quiet should not help in this regard at all. What it does is reduce clocks and CPU voltage when the CPU is idle, saving power and reducing heat generation.
Without knowing any details about your motherboard, I would say try it and see

If you are having serious heating issues (assuming you arent overclocking or running prime95), Its possible your heatsink isnt seated properly
 


What are your temps and on what CPU? CnC shouldnt push temperatures too high. AMybe you just think they are too high :)
 


The cpu temp while playing is 65° Sometimes goes to 68°, while the Graphic card temp is 50 or low. (Btw, the processor is AMD FX-6300)



 


Those temps are perfectly fine. Anything under 80 in full load is just fine.
 


No, i have 3 additional fans:
One on the Processor, other in the Graphic Card (This is droping air out) and other in the HDD spot (This refresh the Harddrives and a the graphic card). And i think...Is weird that 3 additional fans and the cpu keep overheating.

 
I used to have an FX 8320 and can attest that the stock coolers that come with those cpus are absolute garbage. It used to sound like a plane was taking off in my computer and the CPU was still hitting roughly 70C. You should look into a new cooling solution. What case and motherboard are you using? If it'll fit I would recommend a hyper 212 evo.
