Friggin Annoying

Post by kracken »

Since last week had a problem with ANY game,i would be basically stuttering,tried extra fans open case had fan in there run a temp prog everytime i got into a game ! wallop 79c,not doing my cpu much good limit is meant to be 71c,so after reloading everything inc mainboard still had same prob,eventually re done CPU grease still to no avail snifffffles.....
So then decided maybe cpu cooler fan maybe knackered hard to tell as it sits in middle of cooler[ cpu cooler is 5"x5"] so off to shop to get another and bounce for bit of advice as searched and searched every where for info
now Cpu was idling at 59c net surfing! but gaming still 79c,anyway got info it may well be mainboard has screwed or cpu temp screwed on the monitoring software,basic this was said as cooler was cool to touch still !!!

Anyway to day after lot of flaffing about decided maybe ram is doing it[never know give it a go] nope still same as i had 2 spare sticks BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT !

then i noticed as soon as i touched the ram sticks the cooler moved slightly!!! took it of and noticed where it had been loose there were few scorch marks[burnt cpu grease]...so anyway had stock cooler still changed it bang!!!! idles back at 38c and in moh[ seems its hungry little game] after 2 hrs 60c so happy bunny stuttering stopped...........
Happy bunny :D

now on inspection of cooler noticed on clamp there are 2 very very tiny screws and one of them has basically popped off ,resulting in no matter how tight the clamp was it moved !!!! so have a problem with heating and have a not a regular cooler ,check it dont bleedin move :ugeek:
Ps its been in there for 2yrs untouched!

other bright note on hd scrubbed and all clean and totally game hd only![damn gonna have to lay off the pron now lol ]
