So i have a iPower G5800 - Ibe just brought a GTX 660 ti 3gb OC and a new cosair hx 650 gold fan as i want to play games on max settings,
no the questions is do i need a better heat sink and fan ?
I ask as at the moment the temps seem quite high when running games "low 60's to mid" and the fan from on the montherboard makes a hell of noise running the games on full, the computer can handle it fine but im just worried a little about the heat and if i should be concerned.
I want to ideally replace the heat sink on the CPU (i think thats what i mean) and replace the fan attached the the back of my computer which blows air into the computer (maybe liquid cooling here)
thoughts anyone or does my CPU/Motherdoard need replacing?....i hope not
**EDIT P.S I COULD INCREASE THE FAN SPEED ON THE 660 TI IF THIS WOULD REMDY THE HEAT?**
