Hi,
I searched and read threads and post for solutions, I've found several useful tips but I am confused at the same time because it came with different answers, so I might as well ask here about it. It's a common issue about temperature of the CPU and graphics card, probably more. I did not built my computer, but I'd say I did re-built it, someone else built it for me and I upgraded most of the parts except motherboard and CPU.
Intel i5-2500
Asus P8H67M-LE
16GB(2x8) RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
WD 2TB caviar black
(?)500GB backup hdd
Seasonic m12-II 750w
Thermaltake commander ms-II
Every time I play games like dead island, Left fo dead, GTA or witcher(1,2), games with good 3d graphics(not even in highest setting), my computer is heating up so much within 20 mins and an hour to cool down(I could tell from the noise). CPU is reaching 95+ degrees Celsius and around 85 for GPU. hot air is blowing out of my computer, PSU fan is very noisy(no scratching sounds or something, No, just sounds like a really noisy fan like air-conditioner). Chassi near fan is also hot that it could kill ants, that fan runs at 450RPM, which is under the normal, or in RED, base on my MB's bios.
many people has similar issue, they could fix it if different ways, some people are talking about heat sink or reapply thermal paste, I've never done those things before but I am willing to try, it's just I want to make sure first before playing around, because it'll affect my work if something went wrong. some are saying it's pretty normal, 90 degrees celsius ?. but it's bothering me, so I'll just play a game within an hour and let it cold down for several hours. no problem with 2d games though(KOF13, bastion, and other).
motherboard is not dusty, but never checked inside a CPU. MB and CPU are 2 year old, 95 degrees celsius. 85 degrees celsius for GPU, 7 months old. and 5 months old 750w power supply that produces loudest noise. cables are not in the way, I have no heat sink, motherboard is clean, so what do you think? do I need to reapply thermal paste, buy it a heat-sink, or is it normal?
Thanks.
