heatsink

:cool:

Last week my computer shutdown from going to hot. I replaced the thermal paste and that helped some. Tonight I performed a stress test on my cpu from intel extreme tuning utulity for 2 min The temps were 91, 99, 88, 99 When not under stress the cores temps fluctuate but are around 61, 67...

I has a bsod earlier that I need help with. I've slready run the following. sfc/ scannow DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth None of them found any issues. For about 2 2 1/2 weeks now my pc has frequently been turning itself off. I know...

Okay so I may have buggered something up royally, but I took the CPU out of my mom's computer. Ended up dusting it out, because it was overheating. I wanted to try the phenom out in my board so I swapped them out. It is an HP pavilion a6755y se. I put an Athlon x2 in it and it wouldn't post. I...

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this, though this one seems to be the closest to a general-hardware forum on this site. A couple of months back, I was having an issue with my CPU heatsink/fan not spinning at the correct speed. Upon examination, it was fairly clear the fan itself...

I just built this puppy... and it's not performing the way I want it to. Intel i5 2500k (downclocked to 2.5GHz until I get some better fans for the heatsink and case intake) everything else is default: Newegg.com - Once You Know, You Newegg Basically, if I move my Logitech G9 around (a few...

The fanless spinning heatsink: more efficient and immune to dust | ExtremeTech

This part is never easy... I write this post in a saddened tone, if a tone could be added to words typed in a word processor. My main system, housing most of my support utilities, files, information, music, games, pictures, and all sorts of fantastic things is on its death bed. Prognosis: Hard...

Hi guys, firstly, sorry if there are millions of threads on this already. I know 7 can be a pain for random sleep issues. I had a quick search and didn't find anything quite like what I'm experiencing though. Sometimes, when my PC wakes up from sleep, the keyboard and mouse don't work. It...

Ok, I'm not so sure if this is a Windows 7 related issue, but thought I'd post to see what people think anyway. Couldn't find any good answers out there anyway. My CPU now sits around 50-53 degrees Celcius on startup. Heck I caught it at 70C so I dusted it like mad. Last time I checked which...

So I've never overclocked anything before, so I'm really looking for some detailed help in overclocking my Q6600, which is an Intel 2 Quad Core 2.4GHZ for those who don't know model numbers. Anyways I've been told that multiple cores are really only any good for 64 bit software and seeing as a...

I finally got around to getting my upgraded hardware. Unfortunately I picked the absolute worst week ever to try to pull this off. I closed on my new house yesterday (Link Removed due to 404 Error Check the Final Walkthrough folder to see what it looks like finished) and am consulting for a...
