About a year ago I was booting up my pc and I was given a cpu fan error message. Said cpu fan not running and I could hit f1 to continue but when I looked at the fan it was spinning. Who knows how fast though. That would pop up twice a month at most but then last too weeks while playing torchlight and starcraft II my PC would really start slowing down and everything would get all laggy on the screen. I was also using teamspeak and those on the other end said my voice was coming through all slow and slurred. I would restart my PC and get that same fan error message. Let it sit for a bit and it would work for a while before same thing again. PC also just shut off at one point assuming a safety measure.
I am running speed fan and right now running nothing else and just typing this message my CPU and System are 57c. I played another game to test and it went up to 98.5c. From what little I know those are both WAY to high. Speed fan says my CPU Fan is at 2009 RPM right now.
Before when I was just getting the occasional F1 error at boot up and because my CPU fan was spinning I though it might just be a failure with my motherboard detecting the fan speed and it was really fine. I now no longer think that.
I have an intel i5 750 what should my next step be? Is 2000 RPM not enough? Could that reading be wrong and it is much lower? What about the paste you place between the CPU and fan? Does that degrade over time? I have never needed to replace it on any PC before but since each PC gets faster is that a concern now?
