MedTek · Posted: Wed Jul 21, 2004 1:31 pm Post subject: Too hot..?

My Mobo is running 56C (133F)
CPU is running 64C(151F)
Aux is running 45C(113F)

this has to be way too dang hot, im switching to a thermal fan and moving my cables around and move my harddrives around, any other things i could do because get a new case, lol

PS those stats are from my AIDA32 program,

thanks,
medtek

those are high I would venture a guess that you are using a SFF case. Since these cases have very poor airflow you will see higher temps like this but that is getting a little too hot.

SFF= small form factor like the shuttle boxes or the AMS cubes.

yeah those are very hot, i would suggest when you use your computer for a long period of time, you take your whole case side off untill you get your system running cooler, is the room temperature cool or hot?

That is very warm for any pc. I would try to update your case cooling. If your willing, install a blowhole.

Great idea. Maybe a new mobo wouldn't hurt either . . . assuming you can afford one or maybe it can slide until your bro gets his upgrade.

Getting the new case and more fans should definately help.

Also, get the cables all neat and tidy as this will maximize air flow at no cost.

I think i am right in saying you brought this comp ready made...you could go and get it checked out at the vendor maybe?
