Computer Cooling

Computer cooling is required to remove the waste heat produced by computer components, to keep components within permissible operating temperature limits.Adding a case fan. Case fans increase airflow to your components. For high-performance computers, you should install two: one to move cool air into the PC and another to carry the warm air back out.Unless you have a penchant for inflicting heat-death on your beloved components, a CPU cooler is absolutely necessary for any PC. It keeps your CPU from getting so hot that it throttles its performance or shuts down, and, most importantly, it stops your CPU getting damaged or losing some lifespan.1

What do folks think is the coolest/most aesthetically pleasing CPU cooler (with actual performance not being as important as long as it’s improvement over stock) for under 150?

My friend gave me a Ryzen 3 2200g but didn't give me the stock cooler because he lost it. Can you guys recommend me a good CPU cooler for around 20$-40$? Thanks in advance. 😀

ok..i was calculating the price but the price is going over my limits...so sorry to disturb you @WarLORD.😞

But thank you @WarLORD for helping😀

All right than.

I just want my PC to be cool that's all cause amd gets much hotter than Intel..which one keeps PC much cooler?

Hey..I'll be playing next gen games in my PC..which have AMD 8350 black edition Processor... So..what type of cooling should I use..if air cooling..no problem but if hydro cooling please recommend me a cooler in about 50$ to 60$..if not anything near that price..thank you😀

I want to ask wheather 1 cooling fan is enough for my computer, its a 12 cm one and its at rear. Unfortunately my case support only 1 cooling fan
so I cant add more.

Pls reply

@Gamer061
your welcome

dom1da@ i cleaned up my pc case and also i install a normal fan for cooling

the case ! my pc is now better 😀 thanks 😉

@Gamer061
yes it could also be a bug with certain GPU's

dom1da@ i think the fan blade is not broken ! because

i bought this video card last year, but i should check it out !

and my video card is not overclocked ! drivers all up to date

for Inefficient Airflow i must check it out !

some users report this problem for witcher 2 and i think it's a bug , isn't ? :-?

@Gamer061
these are possible reasons for overheating GPU
1. A Clogged fan is the fan working properly
2. A Broken fan has a fan blade broken off
3. is it Overclocked? if so reduce or remove Overclocking
4. Faulty Drivers ?
5. Inefficient Airflow is your case well ventilated ?

if none of the above problems are the cause it maybe faulty

Hi when Witcher 2 a few hours in v 3.5 ( latest update )

my graphics card har started overheating after 5-10 Mins of playing W2

And the system will shutdown .. the sound game is active but monitor and

pc is off 😞

I don't have this problem in other games :| just this game ! 😞

My graphic card is AMD R7770 GDDR5 | RAM :4GB | CPU : Core i3 4130- 3.40ghz

Help pls ?!?! 😢

i realy like this game 😢

my game sett : http://i62.tinypic.com/149mfsi.jpg

my game run smooth and very good fps too 😉 but ... 😞

when and how this happend

i did play tomb raider then pc is freeze and that's dizzie.

"sorry for my bad english"

Your welcome

thanks bro 😎

@Gamerman709
yes it is fine. your gpu can operate under max load up to 98 C.
Here is Your gpu specs
[LINK]

hey guys,
my gpu is 90 C full load is it normal ?
(GT 640 2 gb ddr3)

small

Big pea or small?

apply at the centre of the contact plate, only a pea size amount.

But how can i apply just accurate. Is little bit pour out damage my component?

Never apply more than the recommended amount, because from the pressure, the gel can pour out between the CPU and the cooler and can damage your components.
Never ever apply more gel!

If i apply thermal gel little bit more and split out. Can it damage my pc ? Or there are safety system for this?

Buy a good water cooler like hydro h80 they don't leak and if you wanted an air cooler than
Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO Cooler is under your budget and if you can expand,go for Cooler Master Hyper 212X Cooler(Recommended)

I want to use good fan cooler rather than water cooler bcuz i water is very dangerous for electric items if it leaks😲 which fan cooler is best under $20( i can increase my budget if needed)

If you want better cooling always choose a water cpu cooler like corsair h80 etc
opening one side of pc case is not a good idea because dust goes in and bad for component
you can always go for better case fans instead of using some cheap stock ones

Which heatsink should I use allumanium,copper or something else. Does opening one side of pc is good idea.

He He
But Best Cooling Device Is
Air Conditionar

@ Attila-13
ok thanx but today i was checking it and it was 89 C under full load

@hackerDON
No. Even for a passive cooler the temps should be much lower!
Try cleaning your PC from dust and make sure you have a decent cable management so you can have a good airflow in your case.
Remember to clean it from time to time!

@ Attila-13
but are my GPU temps OK

@dom1da
You're wrong a bit, you mean in idle....under load the GPU goes up to 80C+ temperatures....

My CPU:
20C in idle, 45C under load, 50C Full load.

My GPU:
35-40C in idle, 60C under load, 70-80C in Full load.

My CPU temps are OK but my GPUs temperature always remain above 70 C when idle and nearly 90 C when under load but I only have a passive cooler on it. It doesn't have any fan on it.

for cpu max temperatures are 60 degrees C ideal temperatures about 40 degrees C under load

for gpu max temperatures are again 60 degrees c ideal temperatures about 40 degrees C under load

What are the safe limits of temperature for CPU and GPU and also what are the ideal temperatures ?
