cooling

My laptop fan gets very loud every few minutes and then quiets down for a few minutes, does anyone know how to fix this? I have Win 7 Ultimate 64bit, Samsung laptop with core i7, graphics card, 8gb ram.

Anyone know what the highest possible RPM you can get out of a 120 / 140 mm case fan is, from any manufacturer, and at any price. With the EXCLUSION of modifying the case fan itself. What is the highest possible 120 / 140 mm case fan you can buy? Thanks

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...

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...

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...
