Question PC Running Hard

[Thiiisnacc]

Hi!

I have recently had a host of issues I've been fighting with on the computer. The latest is how hard my PC fans are running for no reason. The Pc just had a new install of Windows and only has Windows downloaded and yet still runs like something in the background is going on. I don't know which processes (PIDs) are legit and which aren't to even end a suspicious task even if I have found it. I have ran sfc/ scannow and dism commands countless times. They haven't really helped. I don't know which anti viruses to trust so I just use Windows Security. Are there any other ways to deal with this issue?

Thanks for your time/interest!

So your fans are running fast but is your CPU running fast too ? What does Task Manager/Performance/CPU say ?

My memory says 21% and the Cpu percentage moves up and down but right now its 13%. I truly don't know if it is my fans or the entire cpu but I just hear a loud humming noise when using this pc and it runs hot when that happens too.

Sounds like you need to set the fan speed or fan profiles in the BIOS to get them to be slower when not under load.

Also is it ok to sfc /scannow or chkdsk everyday or every other day..I don't want to corrupt the pc trying to portect it

You don't need to run sfc /scannow or chkdsk everyday or every other day. I dont think it would harm it but its not necessary.
Generally, you only do those if you are experiencing a problem.
The most important thing you can do is to backup your data regularly.

If you want to give an insight into your pc components, please run UserBenchMark and post a link to the results.

Type srttrail.txt into Google and you will get lots of links to suggested fixes. I cant help specifically on this.

You can also perform fan adjustments within windows. I use 'Fan Control' it works really well.
