Hi there,

Im facing a severe system over heat problem lately, I've found this out when I was playing "Bioshock Infinite" last day and i was running VMware on the backgroud with 3Guest systems..that i've totally forgot to turn off..then the system went off suddenly.....when I checked out the system was too hot to touch,

My PC specs are

CPU -AMD FX 8350
GPU-MSI R9 280x 3G
Mobo-Asus Sabertooth 990fx
Ram-Gskill Ripjaw 8Gb
HDD-Seagate Baracuda
Cabin-NZXT guardian 921

So i believe i can solve the issue by replacing the normal cooler with a liquid cool system...
so please suggest a liquid cool sytem for my CPU and GPU

Thanks,
Nrj

With that CPU you shouldn't be exceeding 61 degrees.
If you are then I wouldn't use your system again until the procedure is done as you could damage the chip and socket.
Also check that your computer isn't dusty.
For the liquid cooler I would recommend this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-Series-All-In-One-Digital-Performance/dp/B009ZN2NH6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1400439077&sr=8-1 or http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-Series-Digital-Performance-All-In-One/dp/B009ZN03AA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1400439077&sr=8-3 these will only cool the CPU as the GPU shouldn't need liquid cooling unless your overclocking it.
Hope this helps!
