hp s5000 overheating

[snert98]

Hello folks,

 

I bought a seccondhand hp s5000 slimline desktop

with a core 2 quad: q8300 

i booted the machine and did a factory reset. i noticed when i start a program or something it starts blowing violently.

so i opened hwmonitor and the cpu is touching 95 to a 100 quite fast

after instaling aida64 and starting a stresstest it imidiatly throteld to hell

 

when hwmonitor tells me the cpu is at 60 or 70 i can touch the heatsink and it is cold do i have a bad mount or somethng?

 

Thanks in advance

Greetings

It could have a bad mount, or the TIM is bad. I would suggest reapplying the thermal compound and making sure the cooler is seated on the CPU correctly.

If it's separated don't use it (if it's very watery or super hard)

took the cooler of as it turns out the thermal paste dryed but the cooler wasnt mounted tight cause two of the four corners the plastic was broken, trying to superglue it now maybe it wil be strong enough
