how come when i on games or media players, suddenly my TT Bettle fan rpm goes down by a lot. i need to off everything and restart then my TT Bettle fan rpm goes back to normal. when it goes down, even finish turning clockwise, the rpm only reach 3000+ but when normal, it will reach 5000+. can someone help me out

then is 47degree celcius for a processor consider hot or not.
and is 54degree celcius for a graphic card consider hot or not?

thanks. pls help me out with my doubt. i am a noob. hehe.

It might be helpful if u state ur power supply unit here.

nope not hot...and ur fan is ok la..dun worry

my power supply is ACbell 450Watts true power. sorry.

i'm still worried about this thing. can someone help me out. is it that my TT bettle going dead? thanks.

I'm not sure, but for me seems like it's symptom that the power is not enough, bcos a lot of power draining parts in ur PC.

hi, i dun get you. well i dun have like dual GC or anything. so u think my power supply not enough power? what model u think is nice and how much the price? thanks

I'm not expert in power, so I prefer let others sifu comment on this. I'm using much more lower-end PC than urs but with 450W power suppy. But, if i'm in ur situation, i'll try to unplug some unnecessary parts 1st like 2nd hdd and light tube. Just my opinion. Thanks !

oooo... cannot hdd.. coz all movies inside. hehe. the tubes actually dun on often. only when show off. haha. besides that. keep down. lol

mind if i ask if you got your beetle plugged to your mobo? or seperate power source??

Maybe you can check your power usage and judge for yourself. But then again might be your beetle fan got problem... I'd unplug 1 hdd and dvdrw and all the unnecessary stuff, then try play games / run prime95 and see what happen...

i think plug on mobo o.. wait.. yup mobo..

i have checked the website. i did calculated the watts. i tried to overestimate a bit. but the power only take 330watts. my acbell power supply can support 450watts

ur power supply sure enough juice for ur rigs!..unless it's faulty which i doubt it. must be ur fan....

it's brand new o.. sob.. ^^ change water cooling. lol.. but no money...

based on your specs i think there might be lack of power. since you're using a high end gc in your signature, during game play the speed of the hsf goes down. so theoretically your gc is sucking alot of power to accomodate more processing power. try fixing the hsf to the molex and see how.

o.... thanks. but i dun think my bettle can run on molex. if want, need to modd. coz normal bettle come with 3 pin one. ^^ thanks bro. i got this feeling too. but just need to confirm that my gc is eating up all the juices. haha. thanks thanks for all the help ppl. love u all and love lowyat. ^^

You don't need to mod it...
You have to find a 3pin to molex connector...

This way, you wouldn't have to mod you're 3 pin fan connector...

Fing "tnghian" he has a lot of that items...

Ah..the main reason that your beetle is slowing down is because it MIGHT be your mobo sucking up the main power source..i suggest u try to go external..as in..try to have an external powersource connected from your PSU to your Beetle..that might help..give it a try....

thanks for all the help ppl. lovely. thanks. will do all those recommended stuff. hope can work out. if any new news, i'll post it again. thanks
