Hey guys,
I don't know why, but since about a week or two I sometimes get a blue screen crash, but this only happens when im gaming. I have an Intel Core i5 @ 2.90GHz CPU.
When I notice that a crash may occur, i exit the game and check task manager.
The cpu use was about 80%-90% and it was 73 degrees celcius!
What should i do??

greetings in advance, Mees

Good choice!
Im pretty sure your problem will be resolved with the installation of the hyper 212 evo
Also remember to apply the thermal paste!
Make sure to use the line method

You can also try turning down your game's settings, less strain on your PC's hardware.

Are you using an aftermarket fan, or the base fan? They can fail too.

Also - check your power supply, I had one die on me years ago and it was only a problem when playing games.

I cleaned my CPU fan and now it goes up to 95 degrees Celcius when i'm playing games... :C
It can't be my power supply, because a bought a new one 3 months ago.
What to do?

If the fan/heatsink is the problem, then my computer ins't well built so what you're saying doesn't matter, still thanks for the reply.

To Elemential: I bought the Hyper 212 evo just 5 mins ago online, so i will post again when I got it.
