  1. Thanks all for the comments. Today I switch up my thermal paste and bought an arctic freezer 13. My temperatures when from 90 degrees celsuis to 65 max when playing bf1. I think the high temps were due to dried up thermal paste. Again thanks all for the help. Much appreciated.
  2. Really thank you for the information. I will first clean and reapply thermal paste before buying an AIO and retest temps
  3. Hopefully tomorrow I will buy and install the liquid freezer 240 and my temps will go significantly down as these current temps are a bit scary.
  4. I am using hwmonitor to monitor my temps. I am certain that it is in celsius. I am unising stock intel cooler for now. In the winter it would average aroung 60 or 70C under load. Is there a way maybe to check the 'health' of the cpu?
  5. Hi all, I have an i5-4690k not overclocked. It is idling at around 113 Fahrenheit or 45 degrees Celsius. When playing any game the temperatures sky rockets to around 176 Fahrenheit or 80 Celsius. In bf1 on ultra it goes up to 90 Celsius. The GPU (GTX 970) barley goes above 40 Celsius. Is this normal and is it safe? It is currently being cooled by a stock intel cooler. I know it needs an upgrade. I was looking at the Arctic Liquid Freezer 240 - Cooler. Any reviews on it? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks all
  6. Currently using a Razer Lycosa and a generic laser mouse. I also have attached a logitech soundbar and a turtlebeach headset. Thanks for the opportunity
  7. Hi all, Can you suggest tools and utilities to help me monitor hardware performance on my pc? All I found from Linus was this very old video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu-PRt_LbhM You you maybe suggest an updated version which I could not find or some monitoring tools? It would be greatly appreciated.
  8. Is it possible to play games on a laptop by streaming them from a desktop? If so could this be done while connected to different networks without severe lagging issues? I am asking becuase it would be awesome to play games at university for example on my laptop with the power of my desktop.Thanks
  9. Thinking of putting up a shelf dedicating it to displaying the old pc hardware and the boxes they came in. Thanks
  10. Agreed, framed do look better
  11. Thanks for you info appreciated it
  12. I really like minimalism style such as: http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/18jovxitm7zuvjpg/ku-xlarge.jpg or http://33.media.tumblr.com/fcd2c963b6d8a2ce3e2dfdf021e33a40/tumblr_n94fdvEeE91t7b5qro7_r1_1280.png Dont know if you agree with this style
  13. My only problem with ebay is that almost everytime I order I receive the poster wrinkled and not in very good shape I live in Malta, Europe
