Hello, long time reader here.
The other day I noticed a strange smell and a 10°C (according to CoreTemp) from my case. I idle now at almost 60°C. I think I require more cooling.
My PC:
- Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products...board&ProductID=2989&ProductName=GA-EX58-UD3R
- i7 920
- 3x1 Corsair CL9 PC1333
- GTX280
- 320GB Samsung 7200RPM 16MB
- LG DVD H22N
- Midi Enermax ECA3052-BS-BL Chakra Case http://www.enermax.co.uk/products/gehaeuse/chakra.html
- 650W Energon EPS PSU
(all stock settings)
It's a fairly new PC, but I've always thought it made some strange sounds and now it's running warmer. When I use a java application, my temps fly up to almost 75°C.
I am a novice when it comes to parts, so could anyone please recommend a decent CPU fan and perhaps some case fans that would fit? I have 1 fan in the front bottom and 1 in the back.
Thank you kindly!
