Dear experts,
Need some cunsultation regarding fan speed...as my CPU fan is driving me crazy...
Since buying my new set PC and had a friend installed it for me, ive been tortured by the super ultra noisy fan in my CPU. For the first few mintues that i run my system, the sound will be very nice and slow but after 5-10 minutes the fan starts to get into action and CPU temp by speedfan averages at 60 celcius.
When i run games and my Flight Simulator the temp rise to average 73-74 degrees and the fan noise is as loud as my flight sim aircraft engine sound....
Here are my specs and some screenies....I'm not an expert with system and willing to spend some $$$ to get rid of this annoying noise and if possible put my cpu back where it should be (see attached pic below)
Specs:
CPU: P4 LGA775 3.00Ghz 1MB L2Cache, 800Mhz FSB
MOBO: MSI Intel 865PE Neo3 Chipset Board
RAM: 512 Gig (plan to upgrade soon)
GPU: Asus GeForce FX 5500
HD: Maxtor 160GB
HELP!
Thanks
The answer is simple.
It's because from the picture u put there, it seems like u're using stock intel heatsink, that's why it's super noisy + super hot.
Want your processor to be cool + silent?
Buy a 3rd party heatsink for your processor and fix it with a super silent fan.
Get Thermalright Ultra 120.
The best 3rd Party CPU Cooler
I can see someone selling in the CPU & Motherboards, Casings & PSU Section in the garage sales thread.
Go Go Go!
