To start, I am typing this on my phone because I no longer am able to turn on the computer for more than a few minutes without it overheating. Things I have tried already: Check AIO for flow, check cpu-to-cooler connection, apply new thermal paste, check task manager for high processes, and clean the PC I have had this NZXT pre-built pc for years now, but only about a month or two ago did I start experiencing issues with overheating. What normally would happen is that each time I would try and fix the problem, (with what I tried being above) the PC would work great for a couple days, then go back to overheating. I have continued to try and solve the problem myself, but I have no idea what else to do since I genuinely cannot startup the PC for more that a few minutes before it turns off on the home screen with only minor background processes (about 4% cpu load according to NZXT cam and my task manager). With that yap session aside, how could I go about troubleshooting from here, I am desperate to try and fix it without buying new components if possible, as well as reinstalling windows, as I don't have an external drive to save my data on. And just to make sure I wasn't stupid, I set up my PC in the middle of the room on the table with the air set to 68° inside and a fan on to see if airflow was the issue. Please Help!

Hey guys! Installed a new hdd had issues with windows so reset bios and reinstalled windows 11. Windows is working all good etc. I wanted to check temps and everything to make sure it was working the same but my temps have gone up to 50 degrees and spikes to 60 degrees when idle? Which seems like a sudden change considering it was 30-40 idle before I reset the bios. I have a Ryzen 3600 , cooler master cpu cooler ,nzxt h510 case and a gigabyte x570 gaming x. Ran a stress test(prime 95) and was hitting 85 degrees. I am currently thinking I either installed the wrong chipset drivers or something else has gone wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have a hp pavilion 15 gaming laptop i5 10300h and it has serious cpu heat issues since I first bought it the thermal limit is always on and fps is low when the games are cpu dependent. I tried everything from changing thermal paste to turn off boost , changing volts and stuff aren't a choice since this bios is locked, if someone knows how to unlock overclocking that would be helpful too.

Howdy yall. Going through a much needed cleaning on my PC as well as some upgrades and came across this dark spot on my gpu. The oil isn't the part in question, well aware that that is just oil from the thermal pads on the pcb, but the dark yellow spot and just overall browning of the PCB seems strange to me. It's heaviest around the actual connectors. Anybody know if this could be from the oil as well? I have recently ran into issues with thermals in general lately, hence the reason for the upgrade (swapping out case fans, as well as adding others). Just want to make sure the gpu isn't cooking itself.

Hey Guys, I recently got into PC gaming and bought Asus gaming laptop. Now that I'm playing overwatch 2 or destiny 2 or call of duty warzone or aimlab for continuous 4 hrs (atleast) everyday with 144hz enabled, the laptop is getting quite really hot. In overwatch 2 (my current addictive game) with 144 hz enabled and in ultra graphic settings, I'm getting around 140+ FPS and the in-game temp shows 86, while the native asus armoury crate shows 96 (or maybe even high). I'm very new to PC gaming and when I checked intel, I read that max allowed temperature for the chip is 100 degrees. I'm very convinced its reaching 100 degrees in COD and overwatch 2 too. Should I be concerned? Is the GPU and CPU not intended for such games? Anything I can do to enjoy these games with killing the laptop ??

Hey, I have recently purchased an ASUS TUF Dash F15 (2022) (https://amzn.eu/d/11nbQWw), 15.6-inch (39.62 cms) FHD 144Hz, Intel Core i7-12650H 12th Gen, RTX 3050 4GB Graphics, 16 GB RAM Gaming Laptop with 512GB SSD and Windows 11. I mostly play rocket league, destiny 2 or apex legends on weekdays for an hour and couple of extra hours on weekends. The laptop temp reaches 72 degrees under normal mode, is it fine or should I do something about it. Also, I always connect my laptop to external monitor with hdmi and usb B(for accessing keyboard and mouse powered through monitor). when I am not gaming, I'm a light user just some movies and coding. Should I change anything about the setup or these temps just fine?

i'm helping a friend of mine to fix his laptop and make it a tiny bit faster. iv'e already factory reset it and told him to buy an ssd as his C drive to speed things up a bit. But the laptop he has (HP ProBook 450 G4 art numbr:1AA13PA) is pretty old and is having thermal issues which hasnt been a issue longterm, but has started to become one recently. Since he dosent live in the same country as I do I can't go over to him and help him buy stuff and he dosent have as much experince with computers. So he bought a thermal paste iv'e never really heard about before " I-tek thermal grease" and I couldn't find any site on it except one indian ebay listing. And I was wondering what the thermal conductivity is and if it's a good option at all. I can ask him to return it and get for example noctua but I don't wanna cause any inconveniences so it's better if I ask the pc gods of the internet first. Should he return it and buy a known brand, or wing it? off topic: he does alot of rendering and 3d work so thermals is something that is quite important that he stays as cool as possible since it a laptop and he can have renders going for hours and needs every single bit of juice he can get.

Preface: Now I know that as this has to do with cryptomining and what not this may not fly with every audience, but this is my proposed solution for a problem. For reasons quite well known to the populace, Europe is having difficulties sourcing natural gas this winter to warm their homes. As a result of this sales of space heaters have sky rocketed. This is leading to a shortage of space heaters. So this is my proposed solution, what if instead as computers are basically space heaters. With the current decrease in GPU prices, what if European consumers were to start purchasing gaming or mining rigs and start cryptomining to heat their homes, now I know that this would only work for the savvy consumer, and that rigs are a whole lot more expensive than space heaters, but the rigs would in part pay themselves off by doing work that pays itself of to some extent, and may potentially be able to game, I mean theoretically it should be easy as one would only need to set up the rig and configure Nicehash after booting into their OS (which for in windows takes ~15 min?) (Note: this post will most likely be edited as it is not a final product and just an idea I hastily cobbled together before heading to bed) Edit: Due to the technical hurdle and the relatively low reliability (because computers do crash) such a solution would not be for the faint of heart, I am not proposing that everyone implement such a solution. My main goal was to propose a solution that may allow some users to make gains (or just minimize losses) in this difficult year. And if people are going to be paying an arm and a leg for power anyway, it may be worth putting that power to good use.

I've got a decently packed setup with fans on top / bottom but not internal side and my system hits somewhere near 70c when going hard but the hdd cage behind the motherboard is pretty hot to the touch, the drives are reporting that they are hitting 55c but i feel it could be a bit higher as well. The case somewhat could fit 15mm fans near the drives but they'd be hitting flat metal and i somewhat don't know how to cool these drives, my other option is using an external hdd box but is there any internal cages that i can get which won't look too bad? i feel having it inside the case where there's more fan points would make it cooler just do to much more airflow.

I own a Zephyrus G14 with Ryzen 7 4800HS and I bought it like 6 months ago, sometimes(ocassionally) when it heats up in silent mode I open Armoury crate to check cpu usage and it's 30-40% constant....BUT WHEN I OPEN TASK MANAGER IT DROPS DOWN IN AN INSTANT TO 4-5%! why does this happen.....unnecessary heating even in silent mode. I also can't figure out what services use that extra CPU as it doesn't show in Task manager. PLS HELP ME MANNNNNNn!

Hi, I have brought MSI Optix MAG274QRF this week but when I turn it on , the bottom half of the screen is getting hot (more than 40 degree). My old monitor (MSI MAG241C ) is cool to touch but for this monitor, the area highlighted in the picture is hot to touch while rest of the area is cold. Please tell if any MSI Optix MAG274QRF owners faces the same issue or is it supposed to get this hot?, Please reply soon as the return window will be over in a week. Thanks

Im using an asus M409DA laptop wid R5 3500u and its idle temps are always on 60-70c , tried most of the fan control softwares but none of them worked to get fan speeds to maximum, i have repasted(Arctic MX4) the laptop also , i know the fan speeds can get very high (while troubleshooting fan in my asus app),so can anyone help modding my asus app to run fan troubleshooting for infinte time (possible?) OR help mod bios ? -have cleaned fans and using laptop on elevated surface so in-outtake doesnt gets blocked...

Hi, I recently purchased a second hand PowerColor Red Devil RX580 8GB. Upon running I noticed that the card gets really hot when running benchmarks and playing games. The temperature is around 76°C± with auto fan curve running at 90%+. And sometime 100% at 80°C. I've tried replacing the thermal paste with a Artic MX-4, no luck. Tried changing the oily thermal pads to Thermalright Odyssey thermal pads, a thickness of 0.5mm and 2.0mm, still no luck. So I thought it might the thermal was too thick since I measured it was 2.0mm uncompressed and 1.5mm compressed, however the thermal pads I have was hard and not really easy to compressed, so I changed to 1.5mm, again still no luck. This is getting frustrating as I have no idea what else to do. I have a Sapphire Nitro+ RX580 8GB. I ran the same benchmarks and games, the temperature is 70°C±, however the fan speed never exceed 50%. Please help, could it be the heatsink leaked the working liquid or something? Is that even possible? I noticed 1 outer fin from the heatsink was slightly bended, I bended it back into shape.

After watching several LTT videos, such as the Lower your heating bill... with GAMING (heating a room with your PC), I am curious to know if there was a way I could direct the heat my computer outputs to the bottom of my Geko's terrarium. I have a leopard geko who has a current heat mat that produces around 95~100 Fahrenheit it is stuck right underneath the right side of his enclosure. My home gaming server and my girlfriends gaming PC both output around 95~98 Fahrenheit when measuring surface temps on or around the exhaust fans. I was wondering if maybe there would be a way to direct, with custom fan setup or computer cooling solution, the heat output of my computers towards or directly on the same area under the terrarium. Currently we are getting a setup where we will have two desks along a wall and will be placing a shelf/rack in the middle of our desks that would house the computers. There would be enough room on a shelf or the top shelf to place our terrarium. I would be interested in saving on electricity by heating the bottom of the terrarium using our computers (gaming/work server is on 24/7). Are there any suggestions or ideas? Thank you.

Hej ! So i have a laptop running on Windows and every now and then I plug in a USB Linux OS. When I go on windows the laptop doesn't seem to heat that much if i'm only using it for writting or internet, but doing the same on the Linux instalation the laptop heat us much as if I was playing games. My question, is it related to my Linux instalation, so a software problem, or is it because I use an operating system through a USB port ?

I have an Asus 14 inch notebook - Vivobook 14 M409DA. It's two months old. It has a Ryzen 3250u (2nd gen, Zen+) (2.6~3.5GHz 2c4t) (TDP 15W) with an integrated vega 3 After a video conference for one hour, the CPU is under 11-16% usage maintaining ~1.4GHz , fluctuating. and the iGpu is at 4-10% usage. THE CPU AND GPU MAINTAIN 50°c CONSTANTLY Are these temps OK? The ambient temperature here is pretty warm...coz india. Also, the laptop has a macbook air 2020 like heat pipe-less cooling design. At idle...it's at around 39-42°c with the cpu at 1-3%...and the gpu at 0-1% use. The chassis never feels warm tho. It also remains dead silent. Should I be concerned about the temperatures? If these are high, are they high enough to reduce longevity for my system?

Hi sorry for the long post ahead I am new here, So recently about 2 months ago I bought an HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop, Specs: Ryzen 5 3550h RAM 8GB( 2.1GB reserved for iGPU so 5.9 GB usable) GTX 1050 3GB So, my laptop used to work pretty well while doing normal tasks but used to heat up a lot while gaming even with fans running at max, temperatures for CPU reached max around 100C while playing CS:GO and an average of 95 C( I used open hardware monitor for measuring temps mostly and also speedfan and coreTemp, the results were mostly similar). Now one day there's a BIOS update from HP Support Assistant so I start updating it and the laptop restarts many times and then all of sudden just shuts down and doesn't start back up even when I try to start it. Frantically I call the HP guys and they send someone to look at it 2 days later, he sees the thermal paste on the CPU and says that it's old or worn out so he clears it and then applies some thermal paste from the side of the copper tube thingy by scraping some of it off (idk what's it called) which was I suppose transferring heat from the CPU and GPU to the two fans. The laptop started and worked well and temperatures did certainly drop while gaming initially to around 85C on average but then after a few days they rose up to around 90+ C average and occasionally touching 100-103C, and after 1 hour or so it had started going into hibernate automatically to maybe protect from the heat I suppose? After another BIOS update a few days later the laptop doesn't go into hibernate now but runs pretty hot, like it averages around 90C and the occasional 100C mark. I really don't know what to do about this? Should I call HP and ask for another assistant to replace my thermal paste with new one instead of the one that was already on there? and if HP doesn't agree to do it should I get it done from a third party and for the time being should I like not game on my laptop to protect the CPU from heat? or is my laptop doomed from unknown heating issues?

I have an asus vivobook 14 M409DA....it's a month old...Ryzen 3 3250u (2c,4t @2.6-3.5Ghz)(integrated vega 3 iGpu) The laptop has his weird cooling design.. similiar to the 2020 macbook air...where there are no heat pipes..there is a tiny heatsink on the cpu, over which the fan blows air...and exhausts it from the other side. Due to this the thing gets hot...idles at 45°c. What I mostly do on it is attending google meet classes....during those, when charging it is 60-65°c and when full charged/on battery 55-60°c....these temps are sustained for hours...though it drops two or three degrees over time...there are one second spikes to 70+ when I open some program like word.. Cpu usage during a class is ~11% with the iGpu at ~3% Under load it gets around 80, might see higher spikes but never cracks 90 It never feels hot tho. Will these temps damage or reduce the longevity of my system? I need to use this device for a looong time. So it will suck if it dies soon. What should I do about it? I can't change the thermal paste coz that voids the warranty and there are no fan controls, third party fan software doesn't work either. It is kinda unusual for such a low tdp (15w) chip to have these temps. A frnd of mine has an acer aspire 3 with a lower clocked, but similiar intel chip, 4417 u, but with a sane heat pipe equipped cooling system, and he barely sees temps over 45 in meetings.. I'm even more concerned about the reduced longevity, coz after hitting the heatsink, the hot air travels over a part of the logic board...that part doesn't have any chips..but has a lot of smd resistors and capacitors...so am worried it can damage the logic board too. This is giving me a lotta stress, any help will be appreciated.

Hello everyone, I have a Acer Nitro AN515-53 that's equipped with a i5-8300H mobile cpu and a nvidia GTX1050 Ti (non-mobile variant). I am having a heating problem where my CPU temps will get to very near or at 100 C during heavy gaming and the GPU and CPU load will drop to around 10% for about 2-3 seconds causing major FPS drops. The problem seems to be that the i5, which has a base clock of 2.3Ghz will continually turbo to around 3.9Ghz (max turbo is 4) and will cause the CPU to heat up much hotter than it should be getting. I have been able to fix the problem by using something like throttle stop to disable turbo temporarily and this causes the CPU to run at a much more reasonable 60-75 C. My question is, isn't the turbo clock supposed to only be active for limited periods of time to help accelerate programs starting and things like that? shouldn't it turn off or at least lower that turbo speed when a sustained load is applied and the temperature is getting too high? I have not edited anything in windows or Nvidia settings except changing things like power mode to performance when the battery is plugged in. It seems weird to me that Acer would sell a laptop with a CPU that will sit at 90-99 C when gaming but maybe this is standard practice with mobile CPU's? I am pretty new to PC gaming and any input regarding maybe a program that would help regulate temps better or manage turbo clocks better would be greatly appreciated. I will post pictures of the CPU and GPU Load/Temp Graphs when I get home and have a chance to get some screenshots of what is happening. I can also post pictures of my BIOS setup but the settings are very limited. TL;DR Is there a program to allow me to change max turbo speed on a mobile CPU or a way to set a target temp for the CPU to throttle for?

I'm going to repaste so was wondering should I change the pads too. Does it even affect performance that much? Or just keep using the stock ones?
