My computer off when play games

[ahmad_98]

I had to change the motherboard ASROCK G41C-GS, when I play video games my computer off,
intel pentium dual core E5700 3.0ghz, 2 ram ddr2 2gb and asus nvidia G210 ddr2 512mb.

In the idle state. What should i do?

That's a problem.

Okay, so what cooler do you have running on your CPU? Make sure those are spinning. Also, how's the airlflow? Do you clean your PC at least once a month? Do you brush the dust off tour fans and intakes or exhausts? You could start there.

 

[ahmad_98]

my pc does not have a cooler. my case is not a good case.so can you help me things that I should buy?
what is the normal temp of processor.

 

[faster23rd]

Nothing? Not even the stock fan? Wow, no wonder your system heats up that bad.

Anyway, we've gone a long way from Graphics & Displays, but I'd still try to lend you a hand. Okay, look, you don't really need another case, what you really need is a CPU fan. Although you could improve airflow by dusting your rig. I had an old set up in a generic case and it was working fine because I regularly cleaned it.

Do you have an online PC store there in your country? Give me the link and I can choose a cheap yet functional CPU cooler for you.

Anyway, the normal idle temp for CPUs when idling would be aroun 30C

Please, peddle your nonsense somewhere else.

or
Can you give me suggestions on brand cpu cooler do you use or cpu cooler should I buy?
i use a normal cpu cooler.

 

[faster23rd]

Wait, so let me get this straight, you have a stock CPU cooler? I thought you didn't have one? You could have worse problems if you have a cooler yet you have idle temps as high as 60*C.

 

[ahmad_98]

I'm sorry to you.yes , i have normal cpu cooler.

 

[faster23rd]

Okay, wow. Ummm. Have you cleaned your case? And checked if the CPU fan runs up to speed? If your fan works normally and yet you get very high idle temps, possibly. something more serious is going on.

bro, I think u should be going of with ur whole computer upgrade as gt210 is not meant for gaming.

 

[ahmad_98]

my pc is clean, how about the motherboard because my pc overheating when change the motherboard.

 

[faster23rd]

AH! I forgot about that! When you installed your new mobo, you took off the CPU, right? Did you take the CPU's fan off the CPU as well?

Because if you did, and just slapped your CPU fan back on your CPU without replacing its thermal compound, it could be the reason why your CPU is overheating.

 

[ahmad_98]

yes but still same..the one of stand my cpu cooler is broken.

 

[faster23rd]

You didn't replace the thermal compound when you put the cooler back on? That's the one of the biggest mistakes you can do when you build/upgrade a rig.

It doesn't matter if one stand is broken as long as your cooler is securely in place.

 

[ahmad_98]

you're right, so I need to buy thermal compound.what type of thermal compound should i buy

 

[faster23rd]

Yes, you should. There are a lot of thermal compounds out there, and it would be unfair if I just recommend one, so I'm linking a thread about thermal compounds/pastes: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/360490-28-best-thermal-paste-lowest-temps

Read that and then decide.

Of course you would also need to know how to apply the thermal compound. If you put too much, the compound will spill over to other parts of your system and cause more over heating and shorting.

Here's a a video guide for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRRWbQUqW1Y

There are lot of techniques that you can do to apply the thermal compound, but I'd personally go with the pea method.

Anyway, just a few important reminders in reapplying the thermal compound:
1. Make sure you gound yourself before you touch your CPU
2. Clean your cooler heatsink and CPU with alcohol (the purer it is, the better) and a lint-free cloth
3. Don't overdo the application of the thermal compound
4. Check temps after you've made the switch; if it's still hot or even hotter, reapply again, otherwise you'll be fine

 

[ahmad_98]

I use the Cooler Master brand thermal compound and I was able to play the games. my computer temp in idle state is in the around 40c and while playing game the temp around 60c to 70c

Hey, that's good. But temps a bit too high for me. Keep working on it whenever you have time!
