Psu Thermaltake Fan High RPM

liakos · Apr 15, 2014

Hi,
I own thermaltake smart s850w, i wasnt doing anything at all when the fan started going a bit loud than normal. Stops that loud thing for 1 sec after 5 mins and then started again.

Any idea whats going wrong?
Its the 1st time doing that since i started for 1st time my pc.

Have you watched your processes in Task Manager when this happens? What are the rest of your PC's specs?

4770k z87x-d3h evga gtx760. I didnt saw something unsual but corsair link changed my profile to the fans and the rpm were to high. Any prog to monitor the psu hardware?

Can anyone answer plz?

Do you have anything blocking airflow, or have high temperatures? The SMART series has a temperature sensor to determine fan speed, so you may be getting fluctuating temps in the power supply.

it has a dust cover ill check that and ill reply to u again. thx

Dust filter cleaned. high rpm still. what to do ?

Is there plenty of clearance between the floor and the intake? If so, it sounds like you may have just got a bad fan/sensor, and might need to replace it

there is more that 3cm from my desk. But this thing started today. i had no problem since i started it before 3-4 months ago.

liakos · Apr 15, 2014

is this thing going to cause any problem to my hardware until i take a new one?

HiTechObsessed · Apr 15, 2014

It won't cause any problems if the fan is just spinning faster. The SMART series has the necessary fail-safes in case it does fail, too.

I saw and LMS.exe running on the system. is it safe?does this has to do with psu?

HiTechObsessed · Apr 15, 2014

The power supply doesn't have anything that runs on the computer, so if you're seeing weird programs or processes that may well be your problem.

liakos · Apr 15, 2014

is there any virus that can cuz that problem or something similar?

HiTechObsessed · Apr 15, 2014

Sadly that's not my side of knowledge lol you'll have to wait for someone else to pop in for that.

liakos · Apr 15, 2014

Thermaltake makes very poor power supplies , I would replace it anyways.
