Default PC temps

While playing games, like other people have posted, my comp either freezes or suddenly restarts
its been really hot (around 100 degrees lately) and my computer room has almost no ventilation.

im thinking my pc is getting too hot, but how do i check the temp of it?

It could be your power suply, you might need a stronger one. How many watts is yours?
When you say 100 degrees, do you mean F. or C.?(hopefully not C)

100 F is not alot! mine is 102 F when i simply am on the net, on good temparaturs. I realy doubt its C, cause that would be amazing hot!
Anyway, get speedfan (www.softpedia.com has it) and telll us your Hdd temps, and your CPU....

im a little confused when im trying to use this...but this is what i came up with...

Fan 1: 968 RPM Ambient: 39C
Fan 2: 2275 RPM Remote 1: 41C
Remote 2: 37C
Speed 1: 55% HD0: 36C
Speed 2: 55%



This is when the cpu usage is around 0-3%
theres also a bunch of voltage things on the bottom which i dont know what they mean

dont know if this was the info you were looking for...but i have no clue how this program works
