cooling

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! :-)

I keep getting BlueScreen errors and the pc is restarting after I switched motherboards from a gigabyte p55-usb3 to a biostar t5xe cfx-sli. I kept all the same components except I added another gtx 470. Thermal paste was freshly applied all around, all the idle and load temps seem normal...

Greetings all -- new on this forum. I'm looking for advice on a crashing problem with the system in my profile. Here's how the crashes act: -Can occur at random times, but certain apps, including Acronis Home Backup, never reach completion without crashing. -May occur as a BSoD, spontaneous...

I always try to keep my room cold in the summer (i am a winter person). But ive noticed my monitor flicker is worse then and not as bad other times. Is blasting AC the problem? I have a NVIDIA 550 Ti 1GB card with monitors hooked up through VGA to DVI adapters. Asking a YouTube Computer Master...
