Hello ! First let me apologise for my bad English.
I have been using an FX-8320 for something like 6 months now and after I changed the standard fan to CM Hyper 212 Evo it's been all good...untill like 2 weeks.
I occasionally after gaming check the temperatures and noticed the temps got higher. Now today was the drastic change. I've been playing FIFA 15 on it almost daily and when I first got the cooler the temps after few hours of playing were something like 53-56 C. Today after one hour I heard a weird sound from the case, like a warning sound so I ALT + TAB and checked the temps. It was 68 C ! I was not running anything else in the background.
The CPU is NOT overclocked and I read that people are easily overclocking the 8320 with this cooler.
I often clean my room and when I do that I get the whole PC out of its place so my question is, Is it possible that maybe something got a little bit loose inside and the cooler is not properly on anymore due to moving the case, getting it back in its place (have to always put it back to a place which is like 5cm above the ground so some let's say...gravity force is working on the case when I put it down so in theory some elements might loose a bit, right ?)
I recently overclocked it to 4.1 but then changed it back to standard. Just changed my mind about the whole OC thing with this thing. I didn't get the settings back to default - just manually reversed the Cool'n'Quiet back on etc.
Full specs:
FX-8320 Black Edition
Gigabyte 990FX-UD3 (rev. 4.0)
MSI GTX 950 2GB Gaming Edition
8GB RAM 1866 Mhz
The PC inside is pretty clean I think, I clean the inside once a month by blowing the compressed air etc. However, without ever taking any part off and cleaning it 100%.
I can provide any screenshots, infos you need.
This is my first build that I worked hard for (I'm a student) so it would be great if I could resolve this problem somehow.
Thank you !
