Hardware:
ASUS Z87-PRO
Freezer 7 Pro rev.2 Fan
Intel Core i5 processor
E2 cooler master thermal paste
Info:
CPU temp 41 degrees celsius
MB temp 22 degrees celsius
Fan speed: erratic
I reassembled my computer after moving country and am receiving a CPU fan error. On the Bios screen I am seeing the cpu fan going mainly around 1000 rpm however this occasionally spikes down to 300/200. I believe i have connected the fan cable in the correct mb slot. I did alotb of difficulty reapplying the thermal paste because the fan was so difficult attaching it to the motherboard (alot of twisting and reapplying) so there is a strong chance the thermal paste was disturbed.
My question is:
Is there something else possibly causing this problem?
If it is the thermal paste can i still continue to use my computer for the next 2/3 weeks without any damage to the cpu? I will be using graphic design softwares and some 3d modelling tools
