Hey guys, I have a phenom II 965 BE not overclocked. It is a gaming machine but i only really play a flash based browser game called Dead Frontier on it.

Anyway, Sometimes when im playing, My fan becomes very loud and when i check the temps they are up to 49 - 50 degrees, Sometimes this is when im just browsing the net, other times its when im playing this game, It lasts for about 10 minutes then they drop back down to 30-35 degrees and the fan goes silent again.


What could be causing these apparent jumps in temps? For them to then drop back down like nothing happened? I make no changes at all, they just drop back down. Its strange.

I also clean out all the dust once a week.


Any help is appreciated, Thank you.
