My CPU is getting really loud

[Simon Roberts]

I got my new gaming pc about a month ago, when I first used it and played a couple of games it was fine and was pretty quiet. But now for the past week or so, my CPU is getting awfully loud and its really annoying me and my parents because of how loud it is.

Is there something wrong with it? Please help.

Care you post more information about the system? More specifically which CPU and which cooler? Can you describe the noise?

he's probably talking about the fan being very loud, any other sound like electrical noise isn't simply "annoying" but probably scary

You might want to consider getting an aftermarket cooler to reduce the noise level when your CPU is under load

Your fan could be dusty or it could be going bad. First try cleaning it out with a can of air or replace the fan and it should be good as new.

your computer is overheating. you most likely are over-stresing your videocard or processor. Do you have a lotof programs open?

one of the 2 could help
