Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

Hey!
So i recently bought new specs. Everything worked fine the first week then all of a sudden all my games started lagging and the fps went to like 10... Ive tried reinstalling all my drivers, changing settings that ive found online but none of the things has helped me fix any of the issues. I have even tried to format my comp and the issue is still there so i have no idea what to do now.. Help please!

Specs:
Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 8GB
Corsair XMS3 Vengeance DDR3 PC12800/1600MHz CL9 4GB
Intel Core i5-4690K - 3,5GHz (3,9Ghz Turbo) / 6MB
ASUS Z97-P - ATX / Z97
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960

Hello... Your CPU temperature is the problem.

Ironsounds :

So to fix it i have to get more fans?

Ironsounds · Oct 30, 2015

Hello... Your CPU should be 70-80C MAX and 30-40 MIN... as a "simple test" take a cover off your case and see if that helps your CPU temperature go back down.
1) You need to check your CPU Cooler mounting to the CPU.
2) You need to check FAN mounting and MB connections for your CPU Cooler.
3) You need to re-apply thermal paste.

Mathias_5 :

No. You have a problem with the CPU cooler. It may not be installed correctly or the fan may be defective.

Ironsounds :

Everything worked fine the first week that i played on it then all of a sudden the computer started laging. So i guess it cant be that i have put it in the wrong way if that even is possible. So the question is if the thermal paste can do that much of a difference?
Also i have had one of the sides of the case off it the whole time

Ironsounds · Oct 30, 2015

Hello... 1)What is your Room temperature?
2) what CPU fan and Cooler are you using?

Yes... thermal paste is needed and needs to be applied properly... Less is better here.

Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

Archaic59 :

But all games worked perfectly the first week.. how do i know if i installed it incorrectly? is it even possible?

Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

Ironsounds :

Maybe 25C in my room i dont know..
How can i see whjat CPU fan i have and Cooler i am using?

Ironsounds · Oct 30, 2015

Hello... We are here and you are there... and it is Possible... Who built your computer?

It is located on top of your CPU... the Fan will have a name on it and Numbers.

Archaic59 · Oct 30, 2015

If you have the stock cooler assembly, one or more of the plastic pins may have come loose that hold it to the motherboard.

Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

Ironsounds :

Intel E97378-001 DC12V that is whats written on the CPU fan

Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

D1v1n3D :

The Corsair AIO liquid Cooler looks great do you think it would fix my problem? Or would i have to get more stuff?

Ironsounds · Oct 30, 2015

Hello... That is the Stock fan that comes with your retail box Intel CPU... There are Plastic Push/turn to lock PINS that go into your MB... these can come loose... you need to make a closer inspection to their position... this could means Looking at the back of your MB for their equal penetration through it... Take the panel off the other side of your case and you might be able to see them from there.

0.50 shows the back of the MB with locked Pin position.

Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

Ironsounds :

When i remove the other side of my computer case i can se one part of the MB and that is where the CPU i located. I saw the small pins that it is holding itself stuck to the MB. I tried pushing them and they actually went in abit further. Is there anything more i can do? or should that do it?

Ironsounds · Oct 30, 2015

Hello... Watch your CPU temperatures... you should be 20-40 min and 60-80 max...
1) There is BIO's CPU Fan setting you can change for more aggressive FAN speed vs CPU temp (save & exit)... Look there.
2) There are better after market FANs/ Coolers that provide better Cooling than the Intel stock fan, and there is Water cooling systems that will provide the Best method.

Mathias_5 · Oct 30, 2015

Ironsounds :

OK. I tried playing Battlefield after i pushed the pins in a little bit and it is not lagging anymore.. just hope it stays like that. The CPU temp while im playing is 65-70

Ironsounds · Oct 30, 2015

Hello... GJ... you need to rotate the Pins gently (this is plastic) to Lock Position... from the top or the Fan/Cooler.
