high cpu & gpu temperature

[bacolodDYL]

patulong naman... pumapalo ang temperature ng cpu ko hangang 80°c at yung gpu ko naman ay 63°c. nangyayari to kapag nilalaro ko ang NBA 2k10. pasok naman yung specs ko sa system requirements nila. pano ko ma i-tatama tong temp. ng pc ko...


specs:

cpu - amd athlon 64 x2 5600
gpu - nvidia geforce 8600gt
memory - 2gb
mobo - asus m2n-mx se plus

maybe your cpu is running other task..check your "Windows Task Manager" Ctrl Alt Del,then, search for other running exe.file in CPU that consume a high percentage at Processes Tab.. click 'End Process'.

add some case fans kahit 80mm lang, tatluhin mo na dahil masyado mataas temp nyan. Saradong sarado siguro casing mo at walang butas.

Lagay ka ng 3 fans, at least 1 front intake, 1 side intake, and 1 rear  exhaust.
I-pwesto mo yung fans na saktong tatama sa harddisk, videocard and processor.
Lagariin mo casing mo pag walang lalagyan ng fan. lagaring bakal lang yan at square na shape tapos pakuan mo para may screw hole ang fan

80'C and 63'C for a CPU and GPU respectively isn't dangerous (it's close though), but yeah. You need better cooling.

Aside from the intake/outtake idea mentioned, consider borrowing branded thermal compound from a friend (Arctic Silver, TM-2, etc.). Remove your CPU heatsink, scrape off the stock thermal paste, and use the branded compound. Instant -10'C off your temperature yan, if thermal paste was stock before. Works on the GPU die as well, but it might be harder to remove the fan assembly depending on your card.

Consider putting more case fans in your casing. this will make you PC a bit nosier, but will help a lot in air circulation.

You might also want to see if your wiring are tamed and are not blocking your case's airflow.

Also, you might want to re-apply your thermal interface material (Thermal paste).

Also, you might want to check if your heat sink fan is already accumulating dust. But of course this is if your Idle temp is also high. although if this temps are only occurring when you play NBA live, I think it's just fine.


i play crysis and some other games in my PC but it never reaches those temps.

I have idle temps at around 29-31 on a cool day and 34-36 on a hot summer noon.

Load temps are at around 40-44.

what app are you using to monitor your temps? it might also be that the app is messing up the reading. i use SpeedFan.

@edalbkrad yan na po set up ng pc ko... 3 case fans na...

@sjon14 sige try kong lagyan ng thermal compound... gaano nga pala karami ang ilalagay ko?

@bgomez core temp gamit ko para ma monitor temperature ng cpu ko.


salamat sa replies 

[edalbkrad]

holy pwet  tatlo na yun case fan 
di ko na alam kung pano palalamigin yan.

Tatlo na case fan? Question, tama ba yung airflow direction? Yung sa harap, dapat intake. Yung sa likod, exhaust. Yung sa gilid (if meron), intake din. Check the air direction with your hand. Kung puro intake, or puro exhaust, temperature could rise instead of drop. Also, if your case supports 120mm fans, try them out. Mura na lang naman yan ngayon. More cu-ft/min of air and it's much quieter.

About the thermal compound, I think it varies from brand to brand, but with Arctic Silver 5, Antec Silver Formula, and Arctic Cooling MX-2 - you apply a very small amount similar to half a grain of rice. Then you rub it all over the CPU die very thinly - thin enough to still make out the inscribed info on the metal shield.

hmm... I personally use Tuniq-TX2 as my thermal compound and I've been very happy with it.

Yeah, i agree with what our co-forumers have said, check the airflow of each case fans.

Also, you might want to check if your power supply is generating heat like crazy, the heat it produces might also be affecting the whole system's general temp.

Do you have enough breathing room for your computer case? I recommend that you allot at least a couple of inches of space for your case to breathe.

ganyan din ang set up ng case fan ko... tunkol sa thermal compound.... walang binibenta ang mga computer shops dito samin... kalokohan!

yung psu ko eh malapit sa cpu ko... nasa taas lang ng cpu ang psu... siguro kelangan ko i-adjust...


salamat sa replies guys!

fan lang sagot jan sir

[bacolodDYL]

dapat nalang siguro na palitan ko tong stock na fan ng cpu ko... di nalang ako maglalaro ng games na malakas kumain ng cpu at gpu. hehe 

[incubus_boy08]

fan lang sagot jan sir

Fan tama hehe

Electric Fan!!!

[man4590]

Fan tama hehe

Electric Fan!!!

yan gamit ko open na w/ fan .....heheheheh

my client rigs..AMD X2 240 2.8ghz (2x2.8ghz DC) Socket AM3 processors ,loaded with latest games.. atx casing vent's are sealed with clear tape for the dust not to intrude cpu...maalikabok kasi sa area namin kasi main road..and "NO casing fan or exhaust fan" installed!but the PC never overheats nor hangs..after many hours of usage..32degrees idle, 42 degrees loaded..

AM3 processors are built to be very efficient, that's why it's still relatively cold under load.

mag aircon ka lang tapos problema mo tapat mo yang laptap mo ! HighCool dapat
