CPU ALWAYS OVERHEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Phen8210]

MY Cpu temps are so high, the dust in my case builds up way too fast.. last cleaned 4months ago and now playing 5mins of ss4iv brings it up to 90 degree wtf?

I need a permanent solution to stop the dust from building up so fast.. i see some people don't even need to clean their PCs after few years of using.

And i have to do a mass cleaning of all the parts every 3-4months.. i srsly don't wanna waste my day on that.

[tony_ong]

at least tts how i do it.. till now still quite dust free. been at least 6 months.

i also using one output fan only.. but using those high flow de. with 3 intake fan

edit: all 3 intakes are filtered

yep, filter-proof on all intakes and maybe check your airflow inside your casing to make sure it is optimum....

one of the reasons for the high temps..

TS if you looking for advice then spend money and purchase more fans for your rig. If you not willing to spend then you will have to clean it often which can be ideal for hardworking people who don't want to spend money on fans.

but i have no intake fan ._.

that's the main reason for dust build up.

if your case has only 1 x exhaust fan, this is negative air pressure. the exhaust fan will draw air from every possible open area (which will not have dust filter).

try getting 1 or 2 intake fan to intake air which go through a dust filter.

Why doesn't TS take a look at the root cause of the problem, like checking if the heatsink is installed properly and/or the thermal paste was applied correctly.

the case must have positive pressure, means inflow higher than outflow. Filter all the intake and cover all holes and opening to prevent dust from entering. My case 6 month havent clean and still not dusty.

my casing think 2 years never clean liao.... just wash the filter every 6 mths or so.

Try not to put your casing on the floor and put in some intake fans. 2 intake : 1 exhuast.

ever consider removing cpu cooler, reapply thermal paste and clean the cooler?

ok finally made sense haha, so i guess i'll get an intake fan on the front of my case.

But my problem is pretty obvious.. open casing can't even see the psu anymore

 

[tony_ong]
