Hello, my cpu fan started making noise during my normal gameplay so i went over to wizard and saw that my cpu temp shot up from 33c to 50c.... the fan is running at 1300rpm.

and all 4 cores (q6600) are around 50c right now without having anything running.....



are these normal temps during winter? i cant wait for summer:(


I asked around here and no one has a simple cpu fan to replace, its all this huge copper heatsink+fan combo that costs way to much....


thanks
 
so would that fan be fine for my rig? i dont see any screw holes so im guessing it glues on or something?


im not sure about the thermal paste and all that, i bought this rig pre-build and im scared to check under the hood:rolleyes:
 
yea 50c is deffff quite a bit on the high side of things, make sure the fan works, if nothing else i would say get a new case with better airflow, antec 900 seems to drop the temp a looot
 
oky doky, even if its not too hot i might aswell get prepaired for the summer heat, new fan and new thermal paste is on my list.


is it worth getting that expensive silver paste or will any do?


thanks again boys......and girls (ya right)

Ahhh, pre-built. Well, the HSF I posted requires holes in the MoBo. If you need parts, you may have to contact the supplier. Did you check to make sure the fan was spinning?

You should be concerned at consistent temps over 55*C. That TP will drastically lower temps once it's cured.
