Hi.
Ive had problems with my PC ever since I have bought the Asus x1950 Pro graphics card.
My current spec is
AMD 64 x2 4400+
4GB RAM
Asus x1950 Pro Graphics card
Antec Neo480 PSU
Abit KN9 AM2 Mobo
Soundblast X-FI
As you can see from this chart my CPU Temperatures sore through the roof whenver I play 3d games such as World of warcraft, Bioshock and Need for speed Pro Street.
I have been trolling the internet for a couple of weeks now trying to find a solution and reading things which can improve my CPU temperature.
1. Bought new heat sink and applied it correctly
2. Bought a new CPU Fan which is huge
3. Cleaned the PC from dust
Now from what ive read it could be my PSU. I must admit whenver I unplug my PC from the mains and plug it in again it takes a couple of minutes to get going again. Yet again my north bridge could be getting way to hot, or even the temperature monitor could be faulty. The temperature of my Graphics card stays around a steady 50c whenver playing these games
So before I got spending my money on a new PSU I thought you might be give me some light on this.
Thanks in advance
Dan
