cooling

I just got around to installing Speedfan on my IBM ThinkCentre M52 and was surprised at how hot it is running (see screenshot)Both the processor and internal hard drives are much higher than I'm accustomed to. I know that the hard drive is too hot, but with the design of the case, I can't think...

Here is the ultimate in home cooling of a CPU.

We have a Asus K52Jc running Windows 7 Home Premium x64. I started getting complaints that the laptop would randomly shut down. I took a look at it and found that the fan was seized and not cooling down the laptop. I ordered in a new fan and replaced it. The new fan works wonderfully, the only...

Hi there everyone. I'ts been over a year since I last wrote on this forum. Last time was because I had several bsod at the start of summer which ended up being fixed by cleaning the cooler. Well, here I am again, with the same problem, except that cleaning my computer didn't work this time. It...

Hi Everyone, I know you probably get a billion of these types of topics on here, but I would like to build a new system and I thought I'd come to the Win7 experts this time :) I'll start with the current system I have, which I built about seven years ago... OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit...

I wasn't sure where else to post this, so I'd thought I'd post it here, since I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the hardware, most likely the MOBO or something. I recently upgraded my Roommate's computer, we had a few issues already, apparently it was BIOs issues, since it was...

I had an all-in-one liquid cpu cooler leak coolant all over my PC last week, luckily it shut down from overheating when there was no coolant left in the loop. I disassembled my PC, cleaned everything with alcohol and let it dry. Then i bought an air cooler and installed it. After installing the...

Hello, I recently posted in the BSOD section of this forum and after several testing, the people over there suggested me to get a new and better CPU Cooler. Link Removed This is how my com looks like: Inside my PC - Imgur This is the CPU-Z thing that I did. Link Removed I will try to get...

Can I run it turbo mode all the time, if I am not using the battery? Or can I increase the low gig. mode from 1197 gig. to say 1500 gig. ? I so seldom use the battery, so I can imagine that being a problem. Also, I read something about leaving the battery out, if I use it outside on a warm...

Hello everyone, I've been thinking about upgrading my computer for a few months. I had already upgraded my graphics card before, and no problem there. I've been thinking of moving my ugly Dell Optiplex 755 parts into a Zalman Z9 Plus case. With this upgrade, I am also thinking about upgrading...

Hi, I have the Samsung R505 (NP-R505-FA02UK) which runs on the QL-62 CPU. That CPU has now failed me due to a broken cooler which caused it to over heat. Anyways, i have a identical spare which works fine but what i would like to know is, what other CPU's will work for my laptop. I've never...

Please, I recently discarded my CPU fan (an Intel E18764) in favour of an Akasa one. My new fan seems to suck air in through the side panel, whereas I am sure the old one used to blow it out. I have an Antec Minuet low profile case. Thanks! :-)

Hey Guys, I have 2 HIS Radeon HD6790 GPUs and I would like to run crossfire. The problem I am running into is my motherboard's (Asus Sabertooth X58) PCI Express slots are to close together and because of the cooling, the top card runs WAY to hot. My other problem is when I crossfire the cards...
